Well I don't think this will solve your problem, because it doesn't address the delay between transactions, but the maximum number of recipients per SMTP session is set in Defaults.py with SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 500 and can be changed in mm_cfg.py >This is a cPanel install (and from what I've heard, they distribute a >custom version of mailman), but they don't have any settings I can >change.

Well, what is in the FAQ >Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py is article 6.11 that suggests places other than this list to go for help with cPanel installations. This list generally can't offer much help. In fact, wrt my response above, I don't even know if mm_cfg.py makes sense in a cPanel installation. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
