The key here is "if you know what you're doing"... MailMan either uses PostFix or itself to send out mail. Depends on how you have it configured. Personally I think mailman is more trouble than it's worth in this particular case. If they were running a mailing list, that would be one thing, but sending out a few hundred emails is another. The person who asked this question does have a valid point. Why does it take that long to send out that many messages when we know other tools can do it in a fraction of the time? Usually this has to do with non- optimized mailing routines. So, maybe that's where CTMDEV comes in and looks at how they can improve this....
