Hi Bart,
You can use the present email implementation, although i do not know how
long it will take for the application server to send 500-1000 emails.
Below a piece of code which shows how to create and send emails in
MMBase 1.6.
<mm:createnode type="email"
><mm:setfield name="subject"><%= emailTitle %></mm:setfield
><mm:setfield name="from">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</mm:setfield
><mm:setfield name="to"><%= emailAdress %></mm:setfield
><mm:setfield name="replyto">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</mm:setfield
><mm:setfield name="body"><%= bodyText %></mm:setfield
></mm:createnode>
Furthermore you have to activate and configure the sendmail module (see
sendmail.xml in config/modules )
Regards, Henk.
