Title: outgoing mail que stopping
Post by: chief on October 08, 2007, 10:37:05 am

I have been having a problem with the mail que stopping. I can click resume and it will start again and send from 50 to 300 emials and stop again. Click resume will most of the time restart it, but the problem is one list is 120k and the other list is 20k. It is taking me weeks to get the mail sent as I just don't have the time to resume every 5 minutes. And the messages are backing up as they are a week apart.

I have already checked with the host and there are no limits on the number of emails allowed on a daily or weekly basis.

What can anyone suggest that I try to resolve this issue.?

I have other lists running on different installs with no problem, but those lists are not anywhere the size of this one.

Is it possible that LMP has a problem with lists over 100K?

Thanks

Try copying the following code into a .php file and browsing to it on your web site:

Code: [Select]

<?phpset_time_limit(0);// length of test in seconds$s = 300;$start=time();echo "running timer test for $s seconds... elapsed = ";while(true){ $elapsed = time()-$start; if($elapsed % 10 == 0 ){ echo "$elapsed.. "; flush(); } if($elapsed > $s) break; sleep(1);}$total = time() - $start;echo "<br>Looks good!  The script ran for $total secs";?>



If the time test does not run to completion please ask your host about disabling PHP "Safe mode" for your domain.

Another thing to try is setting the following in config.php:

Code: [Select]

$smtp_timeout=45;
Please search the forum for "smtp_timeout" for more information on that setting.
