That's what I find odd. You described it as " an artificial limit". And I 
assume that if The Powers that Be are suggesting that's the cause it's not a 
configurable parameter.

Not a very "commercial grade" feature if it can't be changed and it's 
ham-stringing your 16-core 32GB server sitting behind a 100Mb metro-ethernet 
link...[1]

But then again: "Friggin' Lyris".

  According to what Mr. Bittenbender wrote on 2012 JAN 18, NTSYSADMIN then had 
3489 subscribed addresses.

  Well, for the sake of discussion: 175 * 3489 ~= 610K.

  There's also the Exchange list.

  Again, the issue is rate limiting (messages per time) in the Lyris software.  
Adding more computrons won't make it go faster.
