Its a lot cheaper on (queue) disk space, but still costs you bandwidth and
transmission time. I have not tested our lists recently to see how many of the
deliveries were being bundled together - I did do this a number of years back
and it had a much bigger effect than I expected, and there are now a *lot* of
people with gmail/google apps domains, all of which end up at the same SMTP
servers. So this may well incur an order of magnitude increase in bandwidth
usage for mail.
