I think even email size matters? our emails are 24kb per email. As you said that the server hit 30K messages an hour but on the next list send it took 30 hrs for the same list...any reason why this can occur? Probably this is the same issue with my imail server?

It should go out in 20 minutes max. I've seen Imail6 or 7 list server hit 30K msgs/hour, the whole list went out in under 2 hours, (but then the next list send it took 30 hours for the same list). >....Any pointers on why this might be happening You aren't running Imail8's with its improved queue management. your list 4% or 5% or more bad addresses, or you're WAN bandwidth is limited, or your Imail server is severely overloaded, or, etc, etc. Len _____________________________________________________________________ http://MenAndMice.com/DNS-training: Seattle; Chicago; San Jose; Wash DC IMGate.MEIway.com: anti-spam gateway, effective on 1000's of sites, free To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
