bulk email?

[Lawrence Miller <ldpm@lawrencemiller.org>]

Hi, folks.

So, I'm writing a tool to send email reminders to a dynamic list of 
recipients (employees in this case).  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.
