Actually, that's not ours, it's cPanel's. See the FAQ at
<http://wiki.list.org/x/sYA9> for a bit on the difference.

The FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/4oA9> has some suggestions about
this.


>I believe my issue is due to sending out so many emails at one time (the full 2000).  Is there ANY WAY to send emails out to a specific group of members on my list?  For example, mailman alphabetizes list members by name.  Is it not possible for me to send email to members A-C  then wait a few hours and send D-F  then wait a few hrs more and send to members G-I etc?


You could break your list into a number of separate sub-lists and post
to those one at a time. Mailman doesn't have a way to limit it's
sending rate. See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/j4A9>.
