We have two dedicated SMTP gateways running on dual P333 with 512MB RAM
each.  We also have an official company spammer that sends about 7000-13000
emails in one shot using global DLs.  Message flow slows down a little but
no problems other than that.

Perhaps. But Lyris can integrate right into a SQL DB and carry the load.
Pumping 30K messages through your standard Exchange server would
probably bring it to it's knees.
I suppose if you had a large cluster you could probably pull it off.

Brent, what is the config of your Exch server?

Martin I have seen GroupWise clusters handle that load easily. I would
think that Exchange Enterprise would be able to as well properly
configured.

Dude, for 30K emails, your company is gonna need to spend some money
PERIOD. Exchange isn't gonna do it and it shouldn't be expected too.
Tell management to get out their checkbook and call Lyris. www.lyris.com
It integrates very well with a SQL back end.

How can I configure Exchange to be a mass email server. My company wants
to send out the same email to 30000 recipients external to the company.
These recipients will come from web based front end and a SQL back end.
What is the maximum recipients a Distribution list can have? Does any
have any idea how to implement a solution for this scenario? thanks
