Because I am using XMail with a Web application that we developed and that
we use for mass mailing to various email databases. Don't worry this is not
spam, people in those databases registered themselves.

The problem I had is :

-User1 send an email to 20,000 people.
-User2 decides to send a different email to 10,000 other people.
-User2 does not want to wait until our server have sent User1's 20,000
emails before having his 10,000 being sent.

So the solution I came up was to have each my users a specific mail server
so when they send their emails their server start sending them immediately.
I will only be bottlenecked by cpu time and by the banwidth.
