Hi list,

I have to write a small SMTP-Relay script (+ some statistic infos) and 
I'm wondering, if this
can be done in python (in terms of performance, of course not in terms 
of possibility ;) ).

It has to handle around 2000 mails per hour for at least 8hours a day 
(which does not mean, that it is allowed not to respond the rest of the day.

Can this be done? or should I better use some other programming language?
My second choice would be erlang.

bg,
Johannes
