I want to configure Haproxy for outgoing mail load balancing. my configuration file /etc/haproxy.cfg is.

global
        maxconn     4096 # Total Max Connections. This is dependent on ulimit
        daemon
        nbproc      4 # Number of processing cores. Dual Dual-core Opteron is 4 cores for example.

defaults
        mode       tcp

listen smtp_proxy 199.83.95.71:25
        mode tcp
        option tcplog
        balance roundrobin # Load Balancing algorithm
        ## Define your servers to balance
        server r23.lbsmtp.org 74.117.x.x:25  weight 1 maxconn 512 check
        server r15.lbsmtp.org 199.71.x.x:25  weight 1 maxconn 512 check

And when i start service haproxy i get this error.

Starting HAproxy: [ALERT] 244/172148 (7354) : cannot bind socket for proxy smtp_proxy. Aborting.

Please tell me where i am doing mistake.help will appreciated.
