Greetings all, I’ve got an issue with R:Mail 2.6 (actually, I think it’s an Exchange server issue). I’m running Turbo V-8, build 8.0.19.31229.
My schools recently updated our domain name and switched from Lotus Notes to Exchange I’m using R:Mail 2.6, simple loop, to send 795 (or whatever) emails. Connecting to a SMTP MS Exchange Server. Everything perks along nicely until I’ve sent 188-190 emails, then the emails start taking 10, then 20, then 40 seconds each, up to 50 seconds each. I’ve run this multiple times, always slows down at the 188-190 email limit, even when I put a 1 second pause in the program loop or when I changed the length of the email message. Seems like this makes a cache or disk storage size limit unlikely. I’ve used different sets of data, so it’s not a problem with the email address being used or a data corruption problem. The program doesn’t quit, just slows down by a factor of 25. Yikes. From the log file, it looks like the SMTP connection is not saying it’s ready for an extended period of time. Am I reading this correctly? I think R:Mail is connecting, but not receiving a response back from the server for 50 seconds. Is that correct? Sent 1/22/2009 4:57:58 PM: QUIT<EOL> Stat Disconnected. Stat Connected. Recv 1/22/2009 4:58:48 PM: 220 “server name changed to protect the innocent.edu” Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service ready at Thu, 22 Jan 2009 16:58:50 -0600<EOL> I don’t think this is an R:Mail or Turbo V-8 issue, since it worked just dandy before MS Exchange, but I’m unsure what to tell the IT folks to change to make it work. Any help would be appreciated.
