For input, it takes a file of recipient +addresses (one address per line) and a message (with headers already +attached) to be sent to the recipients. It sorts the recipient +list by reversed domain (so similar ones sort together), splits up +the recipients into several groups containing no more than N domains +each, creates an SMTP envelope for each group of recipients, and +feeds that envelope to "/usr/lib/sendmail -bs". + +Splitting the envelopes up allows sendmail to perform delivery in +parallel, so instead of having one large queue entry (for which +sendmail might take awhile to get around to attempting delivery +for some recipients), it has several smaller queue entries. +Depending on your point-of-view, this can still be considered +"cluttering up your mail queue", but it does seem to deliver messages +more quickly to most recipients. diff --git a/mail/bulk_mailer/pkg/PLIST b/mail/bulk_mailer/pkg/PLIST new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..1397d6283ad --- /dev/null +++ b/mail/bulk_mailer/pkg/PLIST @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +@comment $NetBSD: PLIST,v 1.1.1.1 2000/12/05 12:48:36 abs Exp $ +bin/bulk_mailer +man/man1/bulk_mailer.1 |
