I've seen ThunderBird take over 30 seconds to send a 5MB email, that had to send the file from win7 via SMTP to my linux-box and save a copy via IMAP to my 'sent' mail.
I've seen worse ... when I was a regular on flickr (their UI changes have basically driven me away...) I used to upload via email. And I very quickly learnt that if you are sending several large emails, it pays to go off-line, prep all the emails ready to send, and then go back on-line. Otherwise everything grinds to a halt.
Just use postfix to do the job for you.
I did try ... my mailserver collects incoming mail, but mysql is broken so I had to disable fetchmail, and I never managed to get it to work with outgoing mail.
what do you want mysql for, in this postfix context?
I have several mail aliases, controlled by mysql. So (for Patrick)) fetchmail was configured to pull mail from the internet and fire it at postfix to deliver. With mysql broken, postfix can't resolve user-ids and deliver the mail. So now, whenever my wife or I fire up thunderbird, rules fire on the internet e-mail account to move mail to the local accounts.
