Re: Is there a way to control the delivery rate?

Out of curiosity, can I call qmail-remote instead of qmail-inject in your
example?.... If so, I might just need to replace qmail-inject with
qmail-remote, because what I have right now is a spool directory where
all the messages are created in and picked up by a long running process
that keeps monitoring the directory and sending out emails using qmail-inject.
