I'm not sure I understand the multiple SMTP backends. MAL says "for delivery", which I take to mean incoming. Our listproc setup delivers to a single host but sends from multiple hosts - that's time consuming work that can easily be parallelized. We'll do it with Mailman too, have just been procrastinating. The SMTP inbound traffic seems relatively trivial to me.
No, it is outbound "delivery of payload" - our application is large volume outgoing with negligible incoming. Using delivery makes sense for us in the overall sense and we use multiple SMTPs to make this as efficient as possible.
