Post subject: Sending Newsletters??
Archived from groups: alt>www>webmaster (more info?)
I am so sick of the SPAM epidemic interfering with legitimate operations. I
have a newsletter for which recipients have to specifically sign up. Have
about 5700 subscribers. I use a newsletter module in my postnuke site and
have it send 10 at a time. Every now and then I get an error telling me too
many connect attempts. Can someone recommend me an SMTP provider that will
let me accomplish this simple task unhindered?

thanks,

brian

Can you insert a pause between batches?

Surely any half-decent host would let you do that?
