for server processing, I would say that PHP is the wrong tool for this job.
1) time for processing email to nnnnnnnn addresses.

What you probably would want to do - and there are security issues to
deal with.. is have your PHP "admin tool" kick off a job that does this

There are a number of mailing-list/list-servers out there that would
handle this much better and run on many different platforms. (Linux,
windows, UNIX, etc...)
