Quite. Don't run Exim in queue running mode at all. Set "queue_only" as a global option in your configuration. Run a cron job: for qitem in `exipick -i -x`; do exim -M $qitem; sleep 1; done That will then pick all non-frozen messages from the queue, pass them to a delivery session, and sleep for 1 second. In theory you'll never get more than 60 deliveries/minute *but* you may have to tune your remote_smtp transport to only send one recipient per delivery. Personally I'd contact the upstream and ask whether they can increase your rate, and defer rather than reject. Working with, rather than around, your suppliers is often more helpful than you think.
