    Hey DM,��Back roughly a year ago you made me a bulk email mod called mailall.js (based�off bulkmail.js, but with the ability of using javascript to send them account�information, etc). I'm routing through my SMTP server via my ISP just fine, but�it seems as though after it sends out some emails, it starts giving me errors�of "421 Connection rate too high, try again later [R0203001]." ��Is there a way to slow this process down so that it doesn't connect so fast? Or�is it just because of the _amount_ of connections? I believe it was trying to�send out about 230 emails in under a minute, and after about 100 it started�giving me that error message. Maybe if there was a delay in between messages�going out it would fix this? I guess it doesn't matter how long it takes to get�done, as long as it works for every email.��axisd��---� � Synchronet � thePharcyde_ >> telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin)�

This isn't really a�JavaScript question, unless you want to queue up 100 e-mails at a time, wait�for an hour or so, then another hundred. It'd probably easy to just add some�kind of throttle support to the sendmail thread, which it currently doesn't�have. I'll look into adding a configuration parameter.�� digital man��Snapple "Real Fact" #127:�A hummingbird's heart beats 1,400 times a minute. �---� � Synchronet � Vertrauen � Home of Synchronet � [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net�

Other�than that, your idea sounds great and I can't wait to see it implemented! :)��axisd��---� � Synchronet � thePharcyde_ >> telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin)�

I just added a delay in between�every post. So that it didn't do so many so fast. And it seemed to work just�fine. That was awhile ago though... In that time I've gone from over 300 users�down to about 75, since I changed the inactivity deletion from one year to like�30 or 60 days. If they're not going to call for 2 months, they can reapply. :)��axisd��---� � Synchronet � thePharcyde_ >> telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin)�
