Someone replied but somehow I've lost the email...
I'm sending from host1 direct to host2's SMTP server ie
from host1 -> dougb-$i@host2
When I used the inject command, it completed instantly.
The command used was
echo "This is a test" | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject -fdougb-sender@host1 $s
Where $s is "dougb-1@host1 dougb-2@host1 dougb-3@host1 ... dougb-2500@host1"
So far it has delivered 1600 of the 2500 emails in over 2 days!
Thanks
