Hi.

I have a large announcement list (over 15k subscribers) that I'm trying to 
migrate to Majordomo, and I'm getting blacklisted by several large ISPs:

Yahoo: 3066 addresses
AOL: 2346 addresses
Hostmail: 1374 addresses

...et cetera.

I get several errors, but the most obvious one is that I'm sending to too many 
recipients at one time.

mailq (postfix) tells me that I have about 8k outbound recipients sitting in 
my queue, every time I try to send to the list. Begging to get off the 
various blacklists only gets me blacklisted again as soon at the postfix 
tries to flush the queue.

Suggestions?
