Mail back-up system

[Iantcho Vassilev]

That`s preatty interesting..
I read the article and the idea is good. But i would like to know what MTA
are you using..In the paper you said that at first the email is strored in
Mailbox format. Isn`t that a bottleneck. WHat are the loads of the machines.


Thanks
