load balancing - email server

[Arnaud PIGNARD]

You can use IPFILTER rdr. There is a small code that's monitor http service 
and remove it if it's done (check the source).
You adapt if for monitoring pop/smtp too.

Carp seems very interresting.
pen is not very usefull here since

For LB i will recommand you to buy an alteon on ebay (around 600$ for a DS3 
and 1300$ for 180e)
