And Bryan Costales & Eric Allman have hacked sendmail to support
VERPs, and last I heard InfoBeat was handling on the order of several
million customers per day. Of course, they're doing an e-mail merge
operation so that each recipient gets a unique message, but that
would just put an even heavier load on the system than a mailing list
the same size.
