Hi,

I was wondering if i randomized my email list before importing, will LMP send them in order or would it send the way i imported?

Unfortunately this is not possible - all emails are sent in random order or the order in which they are added to the list.

There may be some patches you (or your host) can apply to the mail server to throttle email to particular domains.

I also might be able to make such a feature possible, but I can't say when... I've moved this post to development.

a throttle would help alot per domain.

is there a easy way for me to change the smtp handling to slow way down like PHP allows?

id use php option but i found out that it puts the IP accessing the browser in  the header, with it doing this it sort of defeats the purpose of using a server i might as well just send from home lol

i believe its X-PHP-Script
the major problem with smtp im having is that LMP is just to fast for my EXIM configs  :oops:

Greetings,

It is unfortunately not possible to delay SMTP email the same way as PHP mail at this time.  Check out this post, however, for a custom hack that might help you achieve at least some level of throttling for SMTP:

There should be an Exim configuration change or patch you can apply to achieve throttling per domain. Check out these search results:

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance
