I have the same problem here - connections to yahoo.com mailservers are
timing out, resulting in a significant number of my concurrencyremote
connections beibg unusable. Is there a mechanism for shuffling these
messages off to the side until yahoo comes back? How about control/serverisdead
so that email to a broken server is passed over when the queue is
processed. Alternatively, a means of limiting the number of outbound
connections to a server is something I've been thinking about for awhile -
I do this for inbound connections after a customers script opened
120 connections to an SMTP server and then took forever to deliver the
mail.
