R: Postfix problem

Thank you. But i have a problem using DNS, because we have a phisical device (Linkproof, anyone know it??) and we can't find the way to use multiple ip addresses for a name.
We are waiting a response from radware about that. So i was looking for another solution, PEN.
 
If i understood well, pen is better for http.

Nope. ;-) And using a load balancer for mail is really, really
unnecessary.

Why do I know this? Because we used to load balance incoming mail
using pen, until we realized that it is already built into smtp
and dns.
