Re: [cobalt-users] PHP and Sendmail

[Toni Soto <planeta@xxxxxx>]

Hi all,

The same happens using perl scripts where a call to sendmail is made. It takes
long time to send mail to a list of e-mail addresses and we don't know why. If
we reduce the number of e-mail addresses it becomes faster.

Any idea....?
