Hi,
thanks for all the replies. I need to clarify a few things. First, we use
sendmail as MTA. We *do* use LMTP and not deliver for the MTA. I'm talking
about something different: when we want to to distribute a mail to all

We use a perl script to do what we call a "broadcast".
It loops through and delivers to each individual user.
Probably not very efficient, particularly since we have
thousands of accounts as well, but it was quick to implement
and it works.
