Maximum Emails
« on: October 18, 2008, 09:20:00 pm »
Hello,

How do I set up LM to send 400 emails EVERY HOUR or EVERY TWO hours?

My host only allows that many (sucks I know) per hour.  HOW is SMPT
set up for this? I have a list of 13,000 double-optin members I need to mail to and don't know how to configure LM to accomplish this. Any help would be appreciated. Details please. Thanks a million!

There's a post on this subject here:

You could also narrow it down to a single delay.

For 5000 per hour:

3600 seconds (1 hr)/5000 = 0.72s delay/msg

You would simply add this:

usleep(720000);

...where indicated in the above post
