Another nice aspect of using someone else's hard work is that you'll
automatically have mechanisms for storing and generating stats,
success/failure... and it's probable if your machine hangs for some reason
mid-send, the component would finish the remaining messages. No way that's
going to happen if you send using a typical "dumb" looping script.

In my case I was advised that a flood of 30,000+ messages could well take
down the entire institutional mailserver, so delaying each message was a
necessity.
