The documentation is easily misread. It should really have you enter the expected number of recipients, and calculate the value automatically. What it recommends is not having the *number of processes* (not number of recipients per E-mail) be greater than 25. If you use only 25 recipients for a 80,000 user list, that's 3,200 E-mail files that need to be processed. About 30 of those will be processed right away, the other 3,170 will sit in the queue for at least 1/2 hour before being attempted. So for a list of N recipients, you should enter a value of N/25 for the "Number of recipients per message" value, no matter how high or low that number may be. -Scott --- Declude: Anti-virus, Anti-spam and Anti-hijacking solutions for IMail. http://www.declude.com Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
