Angel, Actually, Mailman tends to work pretty solidly for sending out emails. It all likelihood, it will be faster than your net connection can handle. Mailman should be able to pass all of it's messages off to Postfix in a reasonable amount of time. Then Postfix will spend a few hours delivering the emails to the right places.
You may run in problems when a thousand subscribers can't remember ever signing up for your list, and all decide to unsubscribe at the same time. You are likely to get a situation where 10 different Apache processes and the Mailman queue_runner processing bounces, are all trying to get exclusive access to one huge userlist. This will all be exacerbated Postfix, Mailman and Apache all fighting for a share of the limited bandwidth. - H At 6:11 PM +0100 9/20/02, Angel Gabriel wrote: >Okay, I'm sorry i've posted so much to the list recently, please forgive >me!!
