Beginning with nginx

Server NGINX
1

Hi,

I have been trying to look for a good proxy server in order to prepare
to scale my POP/IMAP services

For 40k pop users with around 700 simultaneous connections we are having
a single cyrus server, and that is not able to handle any more load

Users are increasing and I am thinking of putting up another POP server
to share the load and have a nginx server in front.

I have a basic question
Can I use nginx and one of the real servers on the same machine for
pop/IMAP.

Thanks
Ram

Yes, as long as bind them to non-conflicting ips/ports.
