Both the message limit and, IIRC, timeout, are configurable through Exim. Exim has a pretty good set of docs, you should go through them. I believe my own message transmit is set to a low C value -- 100 messages at a time. Useful on a dialup connection prone to droppage, with several busy mailing lists. The default timeout is 30 minutes. Queue value: smtp_accept_queue_per_connection Exim's batched execution is governed by /etc/cron.d/exim, which is set at 30 minutes by default. -- Karsten M.
