It already does.

Oh, do you mean "simultaneous batches"? If your Python is built with
threads, you can use mm_cfg's MAX_DELIVERY_THREADS. I've never
tried it. As with everything you can set in mm_cfg, see
Defaults.py for documentation, and set it in mm_cfg.py if you
decide to try it.

Yeah; I know Barry's working on redoing some of that stuff
for 2.1. Right now, it runs as a queue message, just like all
the rest of it. I don't see any good reason that you couldn't
invoke "<path-to-python> ~mailman/cron/qrunner" from the mail
alias that accepts commands, or from the end of the CGI script
that sends commands.
