That depends on your settings. If your list is personalized (eg, has links to the user's configuration page), then it will be one per recipient. Otherwise, it sends the mail in batches, how large depends on the setting of SMTP_MAX_RECIPIENTS, which defaults to 500 or something like that, much larger than your example of 50. If the outgoing mail is batched, however, at some point (either in Mailman or in the MTA, Mark will tell you if you need to know which) the list will be grouped by addressee domain, and the message will be sent once per domain. (Possibly more times if you have a huge list.) ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
