No action requested--just interesting info A possible partial
solution could be to evenly distribute the receiving domains
throughout the entire mailing list Sounds like a daunting task

It would actually be pretty easy with the SQL backend - we just have
the get the subscribers using something like,

Right now, the subscribers are always fed to the mass mailing part of
Dada Mail in Ascending order - but that's fairly random already, as
far as the domains go This:

Usually what happens when you start a mass mailing like this is you
start several connections to different mail servers, but if you say
have 5 yahoo addresses in a row, its gonna connect to yahoo 5 times
at once and it will wait until it has finished sending to yahoo
before it will open any more connections

Isn't what Dada Mail does - it only works in serial - not in parallel
