After enduring my trials and tribulations with BM, the least I can do is
tell you all it works great!

I just modified a second list to use BM, right after a message came
through. I watched the first one go to ~200 recipients with tail -f
/var/log/maillog. Then I ran newaliases and sent a message to the list.

WOW!!! The log file was scrolling several times faster than before. BM
split the message 9 ways. I did not set -maxdomains, expecting the default
of 20. I counted one set with 26 addresses, another with 22. Is this
normal?

Anyway, all the messages were delivered in record time (for my system
at least). My hat is off to Keith Moore for his effort in creating BM.
