Try saving out your real list, and replacing it with a very small list
with just a couple of test accounts you can check yourself. See if
there's any difference. If there is, ask Deru if they have some kind of
throttling in place to prevent outbound spamming or something. Just
guessing here, but it sounds like it's not your issue.
Also, I believe the main Deru guy reads this list, which is why I'm
adding "Deru" to the subject. :)
