Hi gang, I have a customer who wants a one-way distribution list set up that will handle millions of recipients... like 10 million. It is a double opt-in, and its not spam.. <g> I'm thinking this is probably too much for MM 2 to handle. Will MM3 be able to scale to this size? If anyone has suggestions for me for current software that can do this, feel free to email me off-list. Bounce processing is important, as is user management.
You've not specified the problem very clearly. How frequently do you expect to send messages to this list? Do you have several lists? How urgent are the messages? Do they need to be delivered in the space of a few minutes, hours, or days?
If you don't need personalised messages, then you can do the VERP in your MTA. That should make it much more feasible. Configure Mailman with several parallel queue runners to prevent messages to large lists from holding up messages to small lists.
