Hi Nitin so you only want to use james for sending emails? What Os You want to use?
If you want to use it as Relay It maybe worth to compare current development version with the latest Stable one. The development version using nio sockets for services. so from my tests it should at least better handle incomming connections. There are also plans to write a nio based RemoteDelivery mailet for better performance. An other thing you could do is to write a in memory only SpoolRepository if you can take the risk on loosing messages on shutdown or crash.
