Im studing exim because I will have to implement a mailing list
system. Reading the online documentation about exim, it says (please correct
me if I was wrong) that exim can queue messages to the same domain
and send then in a single smtp connection. This feature, plus some
paralelism in the proccess, seens perfect to me. But I CANT do it,
Ive tried a lot of options, changed a lot of variables in global.c, recompiled
exim a lot of times, and in every subsequent tests, it opens a connectino
per mesg...

What I done is the following:

 1) run exim;
 2) run this simple script
       while (true); do; echo "a" | mail -s "TEST"
<recipient_in_another_domain>
 3) verify the sockets open with
       netstat -na | grep "\.25 " | grep -v "LISTEN" | wc -l


And every time it is a connection per message....
I would like to know how to make all messages be sent in a single
connection (if possible) and if someone has already developed a mailing
list system using exim (perhaps using majordomo)

Best regards ,
