Hello,

Thanks to those who have replied so far, yes our main concern is the smtp server falling over or dying. So to come back to John Nichel's answer:

John, have you done this personally and I assume the effects were good?? IE everything ran smoothly?

I think you are making a big confusion. SMTP servers do not send e-mail. SMTP servers only receive e-mail. What sends e-mail are MTA (Mail Transfer Agents). Some MTA come with SMTP servers but those are independent operations.

There is no reason for an SMTP server or MTA to die unless it is not configure to work upto the operating system limits.

What mail server do you use?
