Hmm, this is no good if you have a REAL huge list. If there are more
than 86.400 recipients, it'll take more than a day to do the queuing.

BUT: talking about such huge numbers, I'd not take sendmail anyway.
There are better solutions which also have additional features.
Handling all those bounces manually will be a mess.
