hi i am wanting to send out a mailing listto subscribers. myserver has an hourly mail limit. i am using the mail-queue plugin to queue up my mails. so how would i send out batches? or should i just setup a cron job to send out, for eg. 1 mail/second. with 5000 subscribers thatwould take like 1.5 hrs to send out. would this kill my server. any other thoughts suggestions? tx george --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Are you sending the same e-mail, if so, can you send the mail to all the users at once (join them all up in the bcc field with ,''s), or does this also cause a problem with your mail server.

not sure. but i guess this would be counted as a mail for each user regardless. but going to ask, thanks for the suggestion --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
