how many emails are you able to handle with ar_mailer? i've to send at least 5000-10000 emails, but i don't know what to use, is ar_mailer, mailer queue or something else. ar_mailer is very nice because of its daemon, but it miss the priority or the possibility to send emails without queue them. This is quite important when you have a lot of emails in queue (like 10000), you can send every 30-60 seconds, but if you send 10000 emails, and a user signup on the site, it will get the welcome/activation email after the 10000 emails are been sent.... that's not very good :) (e.g. 50 emails every minute would mean 200 minutes, so more than 3 hours for the user to get its welcome/activation email) My fear is also that do an insert of so many emails wouldn't be good too.. :( Any suggestion? thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
