The PC I was thinking of using for this would be the same spec as the
Mirapoint boxes (dual 2.8GHz P4, 2GB RAM, Lots of U320 RAID). I also wouldn't
be using a single PC.
Just curious as to whether anybody had experience with these systems as they
appear reasonably cheap for what they do (Well, compared to MCIS/Openwave/
Nexor/Insert$PROPRIETARYMTA).
As goes users, I honestly don't know how many hide behind those domains, but
around 8-10m mails a day at present are hitting this system
