@1:30 surely it's a pun on snailmail.

I have the postfix setup running, i added two more ips with public ip nating, I tried many approaches to make the postfix send emails from all three ips like a round robin load balancer, unfortunately i could npt but I am able to change the default sending ip to with smtp_bind_address = 10.0.0.1 but I want to make a use of all three IPs with load balancer, any suggestions ?

i wonder, why do we have so many of that stupid mail protocols, why just not to get rid of it and create a new mail server with simpler and more logical configurations similar to nginx and do all the mailing via http(s) protocol, that way the servers will have much less software, libs, dependencies, etc. I know - a crazy thought, but i think it is possible, no ?
