Have you looked in the FAQ (linked in the footer)? More specifically at 
section 4.51.


(Unless it's changed more recently, and I'm sure Mark will know, the answer 
is basically "not in mailman, use another mechanism".)


Later,

Only if you have the ability to patch Mailman. See
 for a discussion of this and a
throttle.patch.

Note that if this is the web host's Mailman and outgoing mail server,
this service is only viable for lists of fewer than 100 subscribers or
fewer than 50 if there can be 2 posts in an hour, or ...

You could try negotiating with them over this, or find a more list
friendly hosting service.

[Mailman-Users] How to slow down delivery rate

[Rob Dover]

I run a couple of small lists and for some time have been getting bounces from 
my outgoing server saying I am exceeding the maximum # of emails per hour.

—

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a temporary error. The following address(es) deferred:

 addr...@domain.ca
   Domain mydomain.ca has exceeded the max emails per hour (112/100 (112%)) 
allowed.  Message will be reattempted later

—

I have no control over the outgoing server and only minimal control over the 
Mailman installation. Its on a web host. The emails do eventually go through 
but I get notifications for every single one that is deferred.

Is there any way I can slow down the delivery rate so it is below the 100 / 
hour threshold?

Thanks -Rob-

Re: [Mailman-Users] Getting implicit destinattion even though To: field is correct

[Aaron Smith]

*FacePalm*  Well...that's embarrassing.  You are, of course, completely right.  
I forgot to put the actual To: header in there.
Nothing to see here folks.move along...move along

Since the OP is using a "telnet session to port 25" I wonder if he is confusing 
an *envelope header" with a message header.

If in the "telnet session to port 25" he is typing:

RCPT To testl...@mail01.example.com

And *failing* to include in the DATA section a line like:

To: testl...@mail01.example.com

Even though the RCPT To is correct, *mailman* still needs the
"To: testl...@mail01.example.com" *in the message itself* (in the header in the 
DATA part).
