I tried doing -m option with 20,50,100 but I get to much mail I/B thru my
mail server for those limits.  I have also tried to limited the number of
emails at the exim lvl but this causes way to many messages to get a 4xx
error and get delivered with to large of a delay.  We get a large number of
automated mails from a lead souce that sends them in groups of about 100 at
a time but there all single messages.  

Does spam 3.0 do better with this?
