You got the right place to change it. It usually defaults to 25. Has this
been changed? What this actually does is it breaks the list into sections of
addresses per this number and spawns a process for each. i.e 1000 users set
to 25 will spawn 40 processes. There is also a registry entry that can limit
the number of processes launched. It doesn't exist at installation as the
default is hard coded. It can be overwritten by adding a DWORD value to the
HKLM\Software\pswitch\Imail\Global key call MaxQueProc
