Wow, I'm the guy with the problem, the audience AND the guy with the
answer! :> :> :>

The answer is.... 
In your mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py file add these entries:
SMTP_MAX_RCPTS=1
MAX_DELIVERY_THREADS=20

That will give you up to to delivery threads running at a time, probably
not the real answer to my problem, but the Max Recipeints is the real
answer! These are all documented in Defaults.py.

You're welcome, Paul!
