Currently there is no limitation on the number of emails Invenio sends.
Which can lead to some bad surprises.
Ideally a correct treatment of errors should be made in each module but
the various sizes of repositories make it difficult to know how many
emails one has to send. For example I get around 2% errors when running
the fulltext indexing. Not too bad if we run it over 100 records, but we
have to index .5M records, ie approximately 10,000 emails.
One option would be to keep track of the number of emails sent over a
period of time and if this number is greater than a configurable limit,
disable the sending of emails.
