I would certainly hope not or Yahoo will grind the net to a halt in no
time.
Mail servers are generally much cleverer than sending single emails all the
time. Let us say you want to send the same email to 100 demon subscribers,
you don't send 100 emails since that means 100 out from you to your email
server, then 100 travelling around the net until they hit demon and get
sent
to each subscriber. What you actually do is send one email and let the
envelope instruct Demon's email server to create 100 copies to the
appropriate users.

Mark.
