   Yes, I calculated that but for some reason I no longer remember didn't
pursue sending the entire list with an appropriate pause between each one.

   The limit, BTW, applies only to the same message going to different

   For me, yes. The files are local, the mail list manager is remote.

Many thanks and have happy and safe 4th,
