Hey, One of the sites I moderate has fudforum installed on it, really good forum if you have not heard of it, tiny and fast. The problem is the host is limiting the amount of emails that can go from the site per minute, and we need to email all the members (a modest 700 or so) a newsletter/update...any suggestions on how to do that? I mean i can write a query to get all the email addresses then write a script to mail() them from a different server (or my localhost/local machine) but I was wondering if any of you could recommend a mailing program to do this or should i just go ahead and write the script to read the addresses and run a for() loop to send them the newsletter? Reason I ask is because I read some time back that using php's mail() for sending bulk email is not really recommended, not sure if 700 is really "bulk" but for the site owner it is...and she is really excited for her first newsletter :-) Thanks!
