For the specific case of the mahara.org News forum, I think what we should do is turn off auto-subscription. Currently it's set so that every user who registers a mahara.org account gets joined to the Mahara Community group, and subscribed to the News forum.
Or, to put it another way, perhaps we should reserve the News forum for news about *mahara.org* itself (because maybe there will be times when we need to send an email to every user on mahara.org?); and create a separate forum for news about Mahara. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

When there are lots of users that need to be notified about a single activity, they need to be chunked and processed over several cron runs to avoid running out of memory.
