That's good.

It does leave a question or two in my mind, though:

Did you know it was against Grex system policy to send mass e-mails?

Did you know it would cause a big drain for the system?  If not, with 
your background, how could you not have known?

It's called 'nice' , n00b.

nice wouldn't have helped either, probably, if the problem was sendmail
using up too much CPU trying to make all the deliveries.

I've never seen the load averages jump over 6 or 7 when mass-mailing with
nice.

On Grex?

Yes.

By the way, all the accounts that recieved the mail were off-site.  I think
there was a sleep process as well.  Only a person who didn't care about how
the system would run would neglect those two points.

I hope you're moving that mail off-site.

If the email size limit wasn't *in* newuser at the time jp2 registered, how
was he tohave known? And besides Jamie, how is anyone that has registered that
long ago supposed to know the limit on email?

jp2's probably storing that 5mb odd replied mail on-site, thus filling up user
partitions.  Once again, jp2's back to his old tricks.  When will you people
learn.

When we sent out 100 copies of a message it was for the Kiwanis club.  Would
it have been better to space them out over a few days?  (#69)

Oh, I'm not saying that the fact that this information wasn't available at
the time that jp registered should acquit him of wht he did. Just curious as
to how people should get to know that certain things like mass-emailing is
not acceptable if they weren't told when they made their account and were
never told or there was no chance to read about it elsewhere

Grex also suffers "collateral damage" from mass mailers -- they tend to
result in us getting blacklisted by SpamCop.  SpamCop only seems to need
one complaint to trigger this.
