If it's not proprietary, I'd like to take a peek at what you were
considering (notes etc.).  Ideally I'd like to be able to parse the 
MTA and popper logs, generate a model for users/traffic and then test
systems with the typical load * some multiple.  Seems tricky because 
one might also need to simulate slow dial-up connections and such.
