Well thats what I was hoping for..

Maybe I'm not doing it right or missing something..

So I thought that should have tried to deliver 2 messages in one smtp
connection.. looks like it only did one.
# man page
-oB <n> This is a debugging option which limits the maximum number of
messages that can be delivered down one SMTP connection,
overriding the value set in any smtp transport. If <n> is
omitted, the limit is set to 1.
configure:
704 remote_smtp:
705 driver = smtp
706 hosts_randomize
707 interface = 1.2.3.4
708 multi_domain = true
709 connect_timeout = 30s
710 data_timeout = 30s
711 connection_max_messages = 5
Not sure what I'm missing here..
Does the order of things mean anything in the transport?
