Of course qmail is dependent on the smtp connections. qmail must obviously
attemt to deliver the message before it can bounce it, right?
Try setting control/concurrencyremote to something around 100 and it'll be
faster - provided the "other machine" will accept that many connections.
Remember, though, that qmail will make one smtp connection per remote
recipient and message. 1000 bcc addresses = 1000 smtp connections.
