Whoa, Len! That's 25 recipients per list message that I moved to 1500
recipients per list. The SMTP32 process is actually taking about 4M of RAM
(real and virtual combined). This doesn't seem to change with either 25 or
1500 recipients.
So, back to the original issue, if an address in the list is bad or the
receiving server is slow/down, does that back up the entire mailing of that
list or just that message?

Assuming roughly 1 meg RAM per SMTP process, that's 1.5 Gb. Just for
that process. How much RAM do you have?
Assuming 10 secs to deliver a msg, 1 SMTP process could deliver 8000
msgs/day, 1500, in your 2 Gb RAM machine, could deliver 12
million. Assuming 20 kb/msg, that's 240 Gbytes traffic per day.
Let's us know how it works out.
