Does anyone know if there is a maximum number of recipients or  
characters for an ActionMailer message? I’m trying to use ar\_mailer to  
send out an eNewsletter to hundreds of recipients, but it doesn’t work  
when the recipients list is too long. I’m chunking it up now, but I’d  
love to know what the actual limits are.

Thanks!
