Take a look at NetApp.  My company (unfortunately) signed an NDA with
NetApp, but they've posted that Yahoo uses NetApp for their e-mail:

Rumor has it (no, I'm not violating my NDA) that Hotmail also uses NetApp.
-Plenty- of other large sites use 'em for e-mail.  Just call a NetApp

it contains some carrier-class implementations.


We use Netapps at COLT for email. 
And as I understand it, Demon Internet in the UK uses them also
and they have over 200,000 users taking SMTP and pop3 feeds.
