I think I'm going to install postfix to do this. I called my ISP but they told me, "There is a limit for a reason" and that was the end of the call pretty much.

UPDATE: I have postfix installed and sending email via my ISP's SMTP server just fine and dandy.

What do I look for to throttle outgoing email (email going from my postfix to the ISP's SMTP server)?

I saw the in_flow_rate setting in the postfix conf but from my understanding of the explanation it just throttles inbound email (to the postfix server)? That doesn't sound like it will help me, but I could very well be wrong.

UPDATE 2:

Would I have to modify default_destination_concurrency_limit ? Would that decrease the rate at which the SMTP server could send emails?
