most of my mailing lists are small (10 or less people, a couple have 100-200 on it)
couple days ago i added a new list with 2,723 people on it. i have email notifications on for when users are subscribed and unsubscribed. all users were subscribed within a couple minutes. however its taken(taking?) 2 days sofar to send out the notification emails. it tends to send them in batches of about 450 or so. about every 12 hours ..kind of odd. i would of expected them to come at a more steady pace. we have already used the mailing list and have recieved responses so i know its working(and the web interface is showing 2723 users on it). just wondering if anyone knows what might be causing the system to delay notifications for so long. mail load is nil, i have that particular list set to 10 concurrent connections ..mail takes less then a half second to process on that system per message... not a big deal just curious .. i expect another 450 or so emails tongiht .. nate
