Using UE to send to a mailing list.

Hi Guys,

I have a client that wants to send a monthly HTML newsletter to his customer base. I'm considering using the recordset loop feature in UE to do this however am concerned about the size of his mailing list.

There are 10's of thousands of address's and my understanding (which could well be wrong) is my web server should only send around 100 emails an hour. The server is dedicated and has no limits set as to how many emails it can send, though having spoken to the tech support people I rent the server from I'm concerned that sending too many emails in 1 go will cause the server to crash.

Is there any way I can restrict UE to send the emails over a longer time period using a PhP script or something similar?

Regards

Andy
