Just to check that we are all on the same page... When you say 50,000
emails in a 1/2 hour you mean that all of the 50,000 messages are sent to
the SMTP server and the spool folder is empty at the end of 30 minutes?
Correct?
If so I think I have bottle neck at my SMTP server. It only seems to send
about 1000 an hour.

This is the code I use. I've found (and I don't know why) it works best when
I send batches of 8,000 at a time. 8,000 will spool to the mail server in
less than 3 minutes.

Have you found a setting that allows you to spool more than 100 messages
every 15 seconds? With those limits set by the CF Administrator we've only
been able to dump 24,000 messages per hour to our mail server.
