django isn't designed to be a mass-emailing system. It can do it, but it is very slow compared to using mailing list software. Mailman is written in python, and you can have django send off the one e- mail to the mailman-driven list. If mailman doesn't suit your needs, you can either put up with the slowness that happens when sending thousands of e-mails from django's e-mail function, use a different python library to handle the e-mail, or write your own python code optimized for sending out mass e-mails.

Or help work on django-mailer :-)

This looks kind of cool! Too bad it feels almost like re-inventing the wheel. :p

If the need arises, I may look into it when the code is more mature. Until then, I'll stick with mailman! :)
