Overloads process time with lots of mails

Issue Summary

If you have many users to send a message to, then the process is normally killed (it iterates from the list) by the webserver as is a php process lasting too long.
A good solution would be to put everything in a database and put a cron to process them in batch periods.
btw, excellent module :)

Subscribing. It would be great having such a feature. Sending the messages via cron sounds good to me.

I think this issue can be closed. The fresh and still warm D6 Release uses the Batch API to send mails. The Batch API is new in D6, so there had to be a major rewrite for the D5 version which is currently not really what i want to do (since D7 is about to go rc).
