I think the section you are referring to suggests setting
*Mailman* to use:
SMTP_MAX_SESSIONS_PER_CONNECTION = 30
and goes on to recommend setting *Exim* to:
smtp_accept_queue_per_connection = 30
(since it defaults to 10).
(But note that adjusting this Mailman parameter (and the
somewhat related Exim option) has a small effect on system load
and message latency compared to SMTP_MAX_RCPTS.)
