  This is quite a problem.

  Old versions of Zmailer did not have this problem.  You can set up the
maximum number of SMTP connections per host.  When the new scheduler
arrived, this functionality was lost.

  I recommend that you user "overfeed" in your scheduler config.
"overfeed" dramatically improves the efficiency of a single SMTP
connection.  I once had to push about 10,000 average sized messages to a
particular host, and "overfeed" made a big difference.
