Listmates (Sandy),
I have built a fresh 10.3 server, but smtp performance seems slow. Are there any tips or tricks to improve the mail sending performance.
There aren't going to be any magic kernel settings to make mail-handling faster. The reason is that mail handing is NOT a cpu-bound task, it's disk-I/O and network-I/O-bound
Your advice isn't wrong, but doesn't really address the issue at hand. First you check your software configuration, and only then you throw metal and money at the problem. In most cases the the configuration is less than optimal, and investing in hardware ist not going to solve the problem if the number of smtp client processes is not adjusted.
