Re: sending mass emails
Yah I think this discussion has come up a few times before. We are running similar volume daily ( 25-30k ). Hi Russ. I assume this mail server is in-house... What kind of connection are you using with that ( standard DSL ? ). I've found that with the size of our emails that we send out batches of 1000. On averge using a DSL connection we managed 1000 per hour. ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:231407 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
RE: sending mass emails
No, everything is hosted. CF servers are at one hosting facility with the mail server at a different NOC.

Re: sending mass emails
We send even more than that, because we have been working on a CF powered Constant Contact killer. It prolly sends 100K per day. Four years ago AOL got tough and started to block IP RANGES based on volume of messages. Breaking them up into batches is the only way to go. I recommend less than 10K per domain name. You can always use multiple domain names and IP ranges though ;) John McKown President, Delaware.Net We host Fusebox.org and all of our apps are Fusebox/ColdFusion/BlueDragon compliant.

Re: sending mass emails
run a query and get a maxrows where a message hasnt been sent then loop thru it and send the messages and mark each record as sent then use a meta refresh at whatever interval to send the next batch, then when done go back to db and reset the sents to not sent. You could use a scheduling but we arent going to do that, at least for the first one until we get all the junk completely out of their database. ~Dave the disruptor~ I forgot what I was gunna put here, Will woulda stole it anyways!
