Xxxx members - Newsletters problem..

[NwS]

Heya,

I've got a site that has xxxx members and i want to send them newsletter.. The problem is that the host will stop sending emails to the 200th member! Because they say something about spamming and stuff like that.. Any ideas what to do?

Thanks,
NwS

Just contact your host and discuss with them, that you wish to send a monthly email / whatever time frame you are looking at sending emails out and I'm sure they will be able to accomodate your needs.

I emailed them the same day asking for more info and they provide me of their "service" which makes me to send my members and email to confirm they want to get emails and then send the emails through that.. Which this is the lamest thing i have ever seen..
I mean wtf no "big" site is doing that and they got xx.xxx members! I'll contact them again to see if i can do anything else about it else I'll just change host or something? :/

You should never pay more than 3 months at a time. Anyway, i can offer hosting with a limit of 10,000 emails per hour per account. Luckally, you aint gona pay much $$, cos, i am only accepting np$ right now.

is not just for spam is vor the server stress also. sending a newsletter to xxxx members at a time is way too much. you should make the script break the emails, like sending 50 emails then taking a 2 minutes brake and so on.

Yeah im thinking seperating it that too since its kinda heavy.. But the thing is they only let 200 emails / 2 hours or something.. So this means that some members might take their emails after 1 day? i mean come on..

yeah i know it's .... , but you can contact your hosting company and make them understand that you are not spamming or something like this and for an additional $1 they should let you send the emails :p.
