"iMS allows you to send personalized mail without making separate control files by using tokens or Qtokens.  "
 
I always thought if a mailing utilized tokens, then there was only one recipient per control file.  Do you have
any examples when this is not the case?
 
Most of our mailings, we insert tracking based upon the recipient, so we have thousands of control files
for each mailing. (i.e. one control file / recipient).  Is there another way to do this?

Sorry, hotmail screwed that up.  To clear things up:

I am sending personalised mail in the sense that you mean - I have one recipient per control file.  I do not want to change this.  What bottlenecks am I running into?  At what rate could I reasonably expect to send out emails, given these constraints - has anyone ever tried it?

iMS allows you to send personalized mail without making separate control files by using tokens or Qtokens.  However, if the server can connect to a responsive server then a typical email will go through in a few seconds (1-4).  The only way to really see what is happening is to examine the log file.  You can send it to me if you want (or a portion of it where you think a delay is happening) and I'll look at it.

Regards,

Howie

I am using the Enterprise (2.1.15) version of iMS.

I am sending mail to multiple mail servers over a LAN.
