Campaign split by cron

Hi,

I’m using 0 0 * * *, but it’s firing only once a night.
I have the limit of 450 emails per hour on the host from 00hs to 05:00 am and
define (“MAILQUEUE_BATCH_SIZE”, 75);
define (“MAILQUEUE_BATCH_PERIOD”, 600);
define (“MAILQUEUE_THROTTLE”, 8);

how do I schedule to shoot more up to the hourly limit between the allowed hours?

Thanks

you have two issues here: setting the cronjob to run periodically, and setting the sending rate.

for the cronjob, you have it running once per day, at midnight ( 0 minutes, 0 hours).

your send rate is set to 75 emails every 10 minutes (600 seconds), with an 8 second delay between each email.

the way the cron job is setup, it will run once at midnight and send 75 emails. You need to change the cron job to run more times. For example, run every 5 minutes, from midnight to 5am:

/05 0-4 * * *
