Need a slow delivary

I have one query for slow delivery, that is , we are sent news latter to our customers , that very bulk mail,

may be that is 50 k mails per week , once stated senting mails it will start sent mail very fast , after senting 250 or 150 mails continuously AOL,hotmail, yahoo will block our IP , so we need need to sent mails very slowly , how can i do that .

Simply add the following (from config-extended) to your config.php file, adjusting the delay to suit your limits. :slight_smile:

# to avoid overloading the server that sends your email, you can add a little delay
# between messages that will spread the load of sending
# you will need to find a good value for your own server
# value is in seconds, and you can use fractions, eg "0.5" is half a second
# (or you can play with the autothrottle below)
define('MAILQUEUE_THROTTLE', 0);

I have added this setting in main.cf
smtp_destination_concurrency_limit = 2
smtp_destination_rate_delay = 5s
smtp_extra_recipient_limit = 10

Is this correct ? is this mean for 5 seconds server will sent only two mails ?

Thanks for reply.

See if am set to 2 , it means 2 sec one mail ?
define(‘MAILQUEUE_THROTTLE’, 2);
