As far as I know, it's a lot more efficient to just strike up one SMTP
conversation with your friendly local mail server and give it lots of RCPT
TO:'s, at least if you're sending out identical messages. So if you can sort
by message contents (and by recipient domain as well, if possible), and only
open one SMTP converstaion per message, that should help.
I think Marty (Martin Moss) is someone to talk to, as I believe he has
experience with bulk mail. I think there's also a CPAN module called
Mail::Bulkmail or similar.
Cheers,
Philip
