Er, there are 86400 seconds in a day (not considering leap seconds, etc) so just sending 10 per second should get them all out in a day. That doesn't sound too many, or too much.

Where is the bottleneck? Has he profiled the process?

I think a big factor that's hurting the process is the emails that bounce or must wait to be received by the server on the receiving end. The server keeps retrying sending emails to those addresses, and eventually it just accumulates.
