  At **Administer** > **CiviMail** > **Mailer Settings** (`civicrm/admin/mail`) you will find settings for CiviMail delivery.
  
  Do your settings have a **Mailer Batch Limit** of 400? If so, this was probably set on your site at some point.
  
  The default is 0 (unlimited) I think; if it was set to 400 on your site this may indicate the task was timing out before completion. If you're having that issue, running the mail task more frequently may be a good alternative to adjusting the batch limit.
