so these are per-user custom messages? (specific message body per user) and not one msg body for all users? The two types of message provide very different loads on the mail server. In a list server, the app sends one msg to the list server post addresse and the list server that into x,000 identical msgs to the smtp server. In per-user, the app sends x,000 messages to the SMTP server. totally different situation. the latter can be much slower throughput than the former.
