I've tried with and without batch-size and relogin-delay. My initial
submissions were without these parameters and I hit the 40 email limit. I
later tried a batch-size of 1 with a relogin-delay of 1 and that still
results in the 40 email limit. I haven't tried any combinations of a
larger batch-size.

I don't think groups.io has a per-session limit, I think it is actually
tracking individual emails over a period of time, so I don't think these
parameters do anything for that.

Thanks,
Tom
