RE: [iMS] Re: aol and email

[Ben Nagel]

Thanks very much for giving us some insight, Marc.  How would we configure the call to cfx_iMSMail to send over longer periods of time?  Here, we run a mass e-mail several times a week that is kicked off by one of our marketing people.  It basically reads e-mail addresses from a database and sends to those addresses.  Would we have to code a delay within that page just for AOL users?  How do you lengthen the period of time during which you send mail? -----Original Message----- From: Marc Lichtenfeld [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 8:40 AM To: inFusion Support List Subject: RE: [iMS] Re: aol and email Hi guys,   Are you sending a lot of e-mail to aol over a short period of time? I've done some research on this issue, and have seen that AOL stops accepting e-mail from a server when it sends many in a short period of time. Even if the mail is sent over several connections.   Marc -----Original Message----- From: Ben Nagel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 9:30 AM To: inFusion Support List Subject: RE: [iMS] Re: aol and email We are seeing similar troubles with AOL accepting mail, but the mail never ending up in the recipient's inbox.  I will watch this thread with interest. -----Original Message----- From: :. webspinner : encore tickets .: [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 8:17 AM To: inFusion Support List Subject: Re: [iMS] Re: aol and email "sorry for additional email on AOL, but i forget the log info"   03/12/2003 11:11:33 AM [016] Send mail start for 1E08F772EC590443BF36B2584CD7C655.mbx (Priority 0) 03/12/2003 11:11:33 AM [016] Connect to mailin-02.mx.aol.com 03/12/2003 11:11:33 AM [016] WARNING: SOCKET ERROR1: (Sock Recv) [10054] Connection reset by peer (1E08F772EC590443BF36B2584CD7C655.mbx) 03/12/2003 11:11:33 AM [016] WARNING: Error connecting to mailin-02.mx.aol.com response follows: 03/12/2003 11:11:33 AM [016] WARNING: (<-mailin-02.mx.aol.com) SOCKET ERROR: (Sock Recv) [10054] Connection reset by peer 03/12/2003 11:11:33 AM [016] Connect to mailin-01.mx.aol.com 03/12/2003 11:11:34 AM [016] Sending mail to mailin-01.mx.aol.com 03/12/2003 11:11:34 AM [016] 1E08F772EC590443BF36B2584CD7C655.mbx sent successfully to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from <> 598 03/12/2003 11:11:34 AM [016] Completed Processing   thanks.

One I am aware of is that tokens can be messed up. Are there any others?   I'm reasonably sure this isn't a current option, but is there a setting in the CFX_IMSMAIL tag to only set the plain/text part of a messaged to quoted-printable?   Regards, Marc   ------------------------------------------------------ Marc Lichtenfeld Senior Programmer/Technology Lead www.bigdough.com   http://www.mail-archive.com/inFusion-email%40eoscape.com/ Note: You are subscribed as [EMAIL PROTECTED]
