SMTP Fast Exploding External Deliverer for Sendmail

SMTP feed -- SMTP Fast Exploding External Deliverer for Sendmail Smtpfeed is a SMTP delivery agent which is called by sendmail, and it improves required time to complete delivery of copies of a message to recipients of huge number. This delay of delivery by sendmail causes by the fact that implementation of SMTP delivery routine in sendmail processes all delivery in a series. For this reason, when it takes long time for delivery to one recipient which is in a huge list, delivery to following recipients is greatly influenced. To avoid such a problem, delivery agents should be implemented so that a delivery is not influenced by preceding delivery: DNS query and SMTP delivery par destination should be processed in parallel. Smtpfeed is the SMTP delivery agent for sendmail implemented with this idea.
