We are sending out around 7000 emails...but it still takes a lot of time (upto 4-5 hours) for it to get actually delivered....Any pointers on why this might be happening

IMail wasn't designed to send out huge volumes of E-mail. It can typically handle several hundred thousand E-mails per day, but when its internal limit is reached (30 processes), it slows down significantly (Declude Queue and IMail v8's Queue Manager help prevent the slowdown, and let IMail continue to send at its maximum capacity). If you're dealing with 500,000+ E-mails/day, you may want to consider using an outgoing gateway with IMail (if the mailing lists are on IMail), or if the mailing lists are handled on another server, you can have that server send them directly (or via a gateway). -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
