I could be wrong, but instead of connecting to the mail server you can
simply change the script to write each mail in a format (that I would
have to look up) to a folder that is the outbound directory. I might
be wrong as I looked at this a long time ago
hope that gives you an idea... other wise you could do a "count" so
that each message would have to wait a while to send.... although I
would think this is a bad thing
I hope that helps in some way
