Alas, no.
This varies quite a bit between 1.2.1 and current 1.2.2-dev
Outgoing emails are handled by the RemoteDelivery mailet, which runs in
the SpoolManger block. For 1.2.2-dev the number of threads is
configurable by the admin. In the config.xml file, SpoolManager section,
you can set the number of threads the SpoolManager can use. Default is
one.
As a first approximation, each block has its own thread (James,
MailStore, UsersStore, SMTPServer, POP3Server, SpoolManager, NNTPServer,
IMAPServer) and each inbound connection has its own thread.
