I've been running SmartList for several years and have tons of
customizations, so was loathe to make the big switch over to running
it under its own account, as I had originally set it up under my own
account (for reasons I forget now). But I've taken your response as
my cue to plunge in with the change, and it does appear to fix the
problem I had with Sender:. I'm still using list entries in the
aliases file, as I'm not quite certain of my ability to incorporate
your exim configuration changes yet, but I'll be researching it.

yes, I've always used choplist. Are you changing the stock choplist
parameters in any way? There has been some discussion, historically,
on the SmartList mailinglist on this.

thanks, I'll pick it up.
I have a 900+ subscriber mailinglist that used to crawl along under
smail-3, now under exim with concurrency (remote_max_parallel = 12),
it delivers 80% of the messages within a minute, and load isn't too
high.
