You can do that with ActivMail, but it takes a little tweaking. We have a
client that is sending nearly 4000 emails per minute with just one physical
SMTP server (he is using virtual SMTP servers to increase throughput,
ActivMail allows you to specify multiple SMTP servers to balance load). The
messages are HTML, and personalized from a query.

Just keep in mind when you say 5000 messages a minute that's an arbitrary
statement. A message could be one line of text, or could be a large
Multi-Part (html, plain text) message with personalization.  That's why you
don't see advertisements "we can send 5000 messages a minute" it depends on
a lot of factors.

Some things that will speed up your message sending is fast hard drives for
the SMTP servers, and fast network all around.
