I am not sure what you are paying but had you contacted me off list then I am sure we could have worked something out. If you are serious about your lists then contact off list. With that said, I would say you are getting what you paid for. If you want to stay with a web host that will not allow you to make full use of your mailing lists just to save a few dollars a month then that is your choice. The amount we charge is a fair price and it allows us not to have to overload our servers to the point that we are force to take unfair measures such as throttling our smtp servers. > The limited response to my posting either suggests that you said it > all, or at least that I am in the minority with this problem.

You are having a cheap hosting solution problem and I am not sure how we can help you with that except point you to a some better choices.
