in reply to Sending Custom Mass Mail - Fastest Way Possible

Hmmm ... by default, I believe MIME::Lite uses sendmail (or postfix?) to send messages. If you don't have sendmail on the box, it may default to SMTP and that's just going to be a disaster sooner than later. I would check to see if you've properly configured sendmail (or postfix?) to properly queue and delay send the emails.

    Yea Postfix is on the machine. I didn't think to check if there is a delay setting, that might be causing a bottleneck. I might just use another module to use SMTP authentication and skip Postfix altogether
