Have to send 1 million mails per hour.

[thisisananth]

We are considering to use this as the email sending application in our project. We want to know if MaxBulk Mailer supports the throughput of 1 million emails per hour. What will be the hardware and software requirements? Will it be able to scale upto 5 million mails per hour? What changes have to be made.
Please reply promptly as we have to make a decision soon.
Regards,
Ananth.

The maximum speed you can get with MaxBulk is using you own SMTP server and as many connections as possible. If you have several local SMTP servers you can use the burst mode and send even more. You will not be able to send big amounts using you ISP or your web server.
