Depends on what you want to do. If you want to prevent qmail from
flooding the forwarding host, the control file to create is
/var/qmail/control/concurrencyremote which holds a number indicating the
number of simultaneous connections to the forwarding host that you allow.
If you want it to send just one email to several recipients at the same
destination, then it's another MTA you want. I won't go into the debate
about this.
