    Hey DM,ããBack roughly a year ago you made me a bulk email mod called mailall.js (basedãoff bulkmail.js, but with the ability of using javascript to send them accountãinformation, etc). I'm routing through my SMTP server via my ISP just fine, butãit seems as though after it sends out some emails, it starts giving me errorsãof "421 Connection rate too high, try again later [R0203001]." ããIs there a way to slow this process down so that it doesn't connect so fast? Orãis it just because of the _amount_ of connections? I believe it was trying toãsend out about 230 emails in under a minute, and after about 100 it startedãgiving me that error message. Maybe if there was a delay in between messagesãgoing out it would fix this? I guess it doesn't matter how long it takes to getãdone, as long as it works for every email.ããaxisdãã---ã þ Synchronet þ thePharcyde_ >> telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin)ã

This isn't really aãJavaScript question, unless you want to queue up 100 e-mails at a time, waitãfor an hour or so, then another hundred. It'd probably easy to just add someãkind of throttle support to the sendmail thread, which it currently doesn'tãhave. I'll look into adding a configuration parameter.ãã digital manããSnapple "Real Fact" #127:ãA hummingbird's heart beats 1,400 times a minute. ã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã

Otherãthan that, your idea sounds great and I can't wait to see it implemented! :)ããaxisdãã---ã þ Synchronet þ thePharcyde_ >> telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin)ã

I just added a delay in betweenãevery post. So that it didn't do so many so fast. And it seemed to work justãfine. That was awhile ago though... In that time I've gone from over 300 usersãdown to about 75, since I changed the inactivity deletion from one year to likeã30 or 60 days. If they're not going to call for 2 months, they can reapply. :)ããaxisdãã---ã þ Synchronet þ thePharcyde_ >> telnet://bbs.pharcyde.org (Wisconsin)ã
