Previously, I've just forked off a Mail::Sendmail process for each outgoing email, but in this case, it's likely there will be some days that perhaps 3 or 4 thousand emails will go out (don't worry, it's not spam), and I'm afraid that a) if I don't fork off the processes, it'll take 87 years to finish, and if I do, I suspect it will put too much load on the server.Is there a preferred module or technique for this sort of thing? Cheers. In a word "Mailman" Why reinvent the wheel? Not trying to start any kind of flame war and I know this is a perl list but why do all of that work to write something when a properly configured mailman installation will do the job.
