Hi Evaldes,

Since there is a time limit of 30 seconds per request, sleeping for a minute
will likely cause your request to receive a deadline exceeded exception. I
think a better approach would be to use the task queue to send the emails at
the desired rate (you can set the rate at which tasks are executed in
queue.yaml).

Thank you,

Jeff
