Hello,

Basic question. But does maildrop have a capability of forwarding an email to a large number of recipients? IE, if I write to a particular email address from a particular email address, can it forward to, say, a thousand people?

procmail limits the maximum number of people to the maximum characters handled by the shell. I was wondering if maildrop does it differently.

PS (No, I am not spamming. This is for a newsletter that people sign up for)

I'm not aware of any limits however maildrop is really not a great tool for maintaining a mailing list (your using a hammer to put in the screw...) I would recommend you look at either Courier's built in mailing list software or mailman.
