Hi Everyone, Why not try using outbound QOS (eg Shorewall)?
I'm using it on one of my servers - works perfectly slowing down the amount of traffic that the server pushes out on to the network.

Yes, but read all the caveats and warnings in Mailman/Handlers/Sendmail.py. Don't do it. Besides, SMTPDirect delivers via the local MTA, so if you're going to implement throttling in the MTA (as we recommend in the FAQ - <http://wiki.list.org/x/j4A9>), you still can use SMTPDirect. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
