vthrottle EOL
sendmail 8.13 is currently in beta and includes a mechanism to vthrottle to control mail rates. because this is built-in to future versions of sendmail, vthrottle is marked for EOL when 8.13 comes out. this will give people a portable, supported mechanism to control their mail with the same goals as vthrottle. vthrottle will probably never be ported to other systems like Linux or solaris, therefore. however, until 8.13 is released i'll keep playing with it.
i'm excited to see sendmail doing this.
postfix users may want to look at the anvil tool in new postfix versions, it does similar mail control.
thanks for your interest in vthrottle.

that should read "a mechanism similar to vthrottle ..."
really, my grammar isn't THAT bad :)
