It's a sendmail/outgoing bandwidth issue. According to the logs, nothing unusual is going on, it's just taking sendmail about an hour to churn through a mere 284 addresses on that list.

How trivial is it to swap from majordomo/sendmail to qmail/ezmlm? I ask not because I want to do it but because people have suggested that in the past for the ADSL mailing list and I've always refused because of the time required to make the changes.
