Php: Emails Not Sent Most Of The Time

hi,<br /><br />i'm using PHP to send email. when i batch it ('for' loop in PHP), it does not work 90% <br />of the time. when i send it individually (manually) one at a time, it works 90% of the<br />time. i've used 'Trace an Email Address' so i know my own emails (control test) works<br />fine.<br /><br />is there a way to see how much email is buffered up? i send a few hundred email alerts<br />to my subscribers weekly.<br /><br />nick<!--content-->
Emails are limited to 300 every 5 minutes. You need to stagger them so it does not hit this limit. Maybe this is your problem.<!--content-->
hi Madmanmcp,<br /><br />can you tell me where that restriction is posted?<br /><br />i sent about 600+ emails within 10 minutes two hours ago. an hour later, i sent<br />two only and still did not receive them either in my test accounts.<br /><br />nick<!--content-->
