RE: Witango-Talk: Mass E-mails

[Ben Johansen]

Does your email server have a built in list server function? If so you can populate the list server with the email address and then send the one email to the list server and let the email server do the processing.   If not you can place code in the error html of the email action that sets a flag to let you know that that one didn't go thru Like   <@assign request$EmailError 1> <@clearerrors>   Or you can place the emails in a table and run a cronjob on the table   Ben   -----Original Message----- From: Noel Estabrook [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, October 08, 2005 10:48 AM To: witango-talk@witango.com Subject: Witango-Talk: Mass E-mails   I know I saw this come up at some point in the past.  I have a system with a couple hundred users and I need to write a function that allows the system admin to E-mail everybody in the system from the web.  I can write the function with a loop no problem, but I'm worried that it will process too fast and will clog my mail server (I'm using SmarterMail on w2003 Server).   Would it be as easy as throwing some kind of delay into the loop or something, or is there a more straightforward way of making sure this doesn't happen?   TIA.       ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/maillist.taf
