[Techtalk] mailman to smtp query

[Terri Oda]

I believe the option you're looking for is SMTP_MAX_RCPTS.

This FAQ entry on performance tuning may help too:

http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Mailman+Performance+Tuning+for+Mail+Delivery

I recommend posting to the mailman-users at python.org list if you have 
more questions.  Several folk there have experience tuning installations 
and getting around small delivery limits on connections.
