I like Scotts answer about running them in batches.. makes sense. I'm curious thought, is it possible that the dns server is causing excessive delays and thus slowing the mail delivery process down? If you run them in batches and each batch starts it's own process, then wouldn't that suggest that your system doesn't have enough resources to run multiple processes or possibly that multiple threads within the same process are bening bottlenecked? I would think that it each outbound email, if it hasn't recieved a response from the recieving server, should time out around 4 seconds and be quened for a retrans. An adjustible timeout setting would be nice.. that way you're not 'waiting' 30 seconds for the complete run.. Anyway.. so many varibles could effect the trans.. retrans of packets.. nic cards, 'the other end' etc.. etc.. I'm sorry not much help.. ~Rick ___________________________________________________________________ Virus Scanned and Filtered by http://www.FamHost.com E-Mail System.
