I've looked at making adjustments to the following variables, but am not quite sure whether these would have the desired effect or what combination to use: SMTP_MAX_RCPTS = 20 SMTP_MAX_SESSIONS_PER_CONNECTION = 0 MAX_DELIVERY_THREADS = 0
None of these are likely to help you achieve what you want. They'll just cause the same number of recipients to be spread over more or fewer outgoing mail messages, but given that most mailing lists don't see a whole lot of additional traffic when they turn on VERP, this is unlikely to buy you a whole lot.
You need to throttle at a whole different level, and this is not something that Mailman can help you with. Go to the FAQ section of the Mailman wiki at <http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Frequently+Asked+Questions>, and search for "throttle".
