> a) The front end still has to manage the huge amount of incoming mail. With something like ldap or SQL (or hash the username to work out which box should store the mail) you can have X number of frontends with identical configuration delivering to the backend boxes. If it's ldap then replication of database servers is reasonably simple too. > b) Uniform POP3 access to mailboxes under the same name becomes imposible. Modify Perdtion as per requirements.
