  I have put it into production, and according to the laws of Murphy,
  something dies.

  mailscanner starts, reporting into mail.log syslog that it is running --
  that is the last message I see.

  Our SMTP workload is very very heavy, with 19000 accounts. Even doing an
ls
  -l on the /var/spool/mqueue.in directory takes forever... sendmail is
still
  running, in the recommended configuration.

  If anyone has seen Mailscanner challenges like this in the past, I would
  appriciate any help.
