Throttle outgoing emails to a certain rate?
Is there a possibility to throttle the sending of outgoing emails to a certain rate, e.g. 100 emails per hour, or to split them up into corresponding chunks? I run Mailman 2.1.33 on a hosted server and the provider only allows me to send a maximum of 100 emails per hour. The excess emails are also simply discarded and the sender and list administrator get a bunch of error emails. This is very annoying, especially because I didn't know about it and the problem only now occurs occasionally during operation... ;-( Thanks for all hints.

This is not the list for Mailman 2.1 questions. The Mailman 2.1 list is mailman-users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/.
That said, for Mailman 2.1 see the FAQ article at https://wiki.list.org/x/4030607.

Move your mailman 2 list to us (Mailmanhost.com). We don't throttle our outgoing mail servers and our clients love us for that.
