Delivery Method.

[Miguel Koren O'Brien de Lacy]

Kelly;

This was a concern of mine when I first instaled Mail Scanner (about 3
months ago) and I set it up like this (not a 'high' volume site though):

- delivery method = queue

- starting Mail Scanner:

/usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -ODeliveryMode=queueonly
-OQueueDirectory=/var/spool/mqueue.in
/usr/sbin/sendmail -q1m

This has worked very well for me and I never see anything queued up nor any
appreciable delay (not anything that anyone compains about).

But I am interested in other people's opinion if this is the way to go for
high throughput.
