domain based mail queue processing


we host a relay server to receive mails when client mail servers are down. it is configured to receive mails for several domains and currently runs sendmail.

I wish to know whether it is possible to prioritize mail queue processing (ex: prioritize queue of abc.com domain) using sendmail. If it is not possible with sendmail do you know any other mail server capable of this sort of processing.

Thanks in advance.

Within a single queue setup you could run a separate queue runner for delivering to a certain domain, or based on any other sender/receiver string, or you could run multiple queues with different runner timings. It's better explained here I think: http://www.ilkda.com/sendmail/Queue_Tips.htm
