It seems from your message that you are probably already aware of
thise, but just in case (and for the benefit of others): Note that
this is an issue with hotmail, yahoo, etc's spam-prevention
techniques.  They tend to set very low limits on the number of
recipients that a message can be sent to at once - I think hotmail
used to be limited to 5, or something similarly tiny.

With 1500 members it is of course vastly more efficient on James' part
to make one connection instead of 1500 separate ones... but given the
prevalence of hotmail/yahoo/etc it seems to me that there could be a
configurable section somewhere that lets you specify the max #
recipients per domain to send to at once... just my two cents.
