Yes, iMS is multithreaded which does mean that it will use multiple processors. I would imagine that you're seeing more of a bandwidth limitation, however. Our primary mail server (a soon-to-be-retired dual PPro/200) can eat up all of our current bandwidth (2MB) as we have found out in the past before we implemented bandwidth throttling.
