So I am sure we have the hardware to do it. I have a dual PIII-550 with 1 gig, queue on a dedicated scsi-disk. It sends out a mailinglist to the first 10.000 recipients in just over 3 minutes, with concurrencyremote set to 256. So you should have no trouble at all :) [note that this machine is handling a couple local deliveries (NFS) and forwards per second in the meantime, too] Greetz, Peter.

My second guess is that PeterD is sending a single untailored email to many recipients. Regards.
