I'm using Mailman to manage several Newsletters, the subscribers can't submit, they just receive mail. One of the lists is up to nearly 2000 users and Sendmail takes forever to send the mail. The last e-mail took 20 hours to complete, and one was sent last night, in 8 hours only 100-200 mails were sent, currently I forced a mail queue run (sendmail -v -q) and it's moving faster, but it's still slow, sent about 400 e-mail's in the past hour.
My first question is does Sendmail always deliver the mail 1 connection at a time, or is that only because I ran it by hand? I figure multi threaded queue processing would help the speed a lot. Are there any easy tweaks to make with Sendmail? Second would I benefit from switching to Postfix? How involved is switching MTA's? Does the Red Had mail switcher program take care of it all? -- Jeff Bearer, RCHE Webmaster, PittsburghLIVE.com Winner 2002 Eppy Award, Best U.S. Newspaper Website -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
