Subject: Re: Bulkmail redistributable?
> Can I put bulkmail into a linux distribution (DEBIAN) ?
sure. let me make sure I get the latest distribution to you...
the license is basically GPL.
though I keep wanting to add some provision that says you
can't use it for spamming...

Part of the INSTALL textfile:
The core of this program was extracted from a somewhat strange mailing
list manager called na-net; it was designed to efficiently send out
mail to 5000 people at a time. I have used this program to attempt
delivery of a message to over 12000 recipients around the world,
within a few hours. I'm currently using bulk_mailer as a back-end for
several mailing lists of modest size.
