The chunking algorithm for sending messages to the mta is defined by
variables such as SMTP_MAX_SESSIONS_PER_CONNECTION and
SMTP_MAX_RCPTS.

The latter specifies the maximum size of the RCPT TO chunks in each
handoff to the mta.  Set it to a negative number to not chunk at all.
When chunking, Mailman first sorts by these tlds: .com, .net, .org,
.edu, .us, .ca.  Everything else goes into a separate bucket.  Yeah,
this is pretty North America-centric :/.  Note that Mailman does not
chunk based on MX or on 2nd level domain names.

SMTP_MAX_SESSIONS_PER_CONNECTION determines how many chunks it sends
down the same socket connection to the mta.  Again, a negative number
means blast all the chunks down the same connection.
