maybe this is a stupid question, since I don't know exim,
but don't I have to call a sort of command do prepare the message ?
Perhaps exim message structure (header, body, etc.) is documented or
there are some libraries to do the job ?
And in any case: on a single Sun machine (pretty good, that's what they
promised to me)
how much will it take roughly for sending 10,000 different mails to
different addresses ?
Thanks
