You could modify Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py to limit the number of recipients sent per minute/hour/whatever, but if you do this, you need to be sure you don't set the limit too low or Mailman's out/ queue will become backlogged and all messages from Mailman will be delayed by hours/days depending on how severe the backlog is. Anything other than a simple, installation wide limit would require a major modification to Mailman's outgoing mail processing. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
