Hi,
Hopefully you guys can help me out here. I set up a mailing list last week on our server (elizabethrbroadcastingfund.org), I imported many usernames so in total there was 1160 (now 1164) subscribed, however, (i expect!) foolishly I never set any limits and I imagine this may have set off a TCH limit in sending out e-mails from servers as not all subscribed seemed to receive it.
The majority of people we ask seem to have no idea though someone did mention it so it's definitely getting to some. I've looked at the users lists to check they aren't blacklisted, subscribed to correct list etc.. Everything says it's ok! So this leave me assuming it's a mail-load limit?
Could someone advise the best way to go around fixing this? I've currently changed the config mailqueue_throttle to 10seconds, though I'm not going to test it out yet - I imagine that'd still be too many e-mails? (with this setting it should be sending out max 360 an hour I believe with the mailbatch period being 3600, though I could be talking utter rubbish - i'm sure you people know better!)
I also stumbled upon this during searching the forums

When sending to such a number do I need to run it as a cron job? Do I actually need to leave the tab open in my browser till all is sent?? Or is this just for a specific method because it's the first I heard of this though I've never dealt with such a high capacity of subscribers.
Many thanks, feel free to ask any questions and i'll try get back to you asap
Thanks again
P.S. Here's the phplist processing info that was sent to my e-mail after
I'm pretty certain the 33 invalid were entries I forgot to remove brackets from (all the addresses copied from outlook into excel) so ignore them. The 98 e-mails I doubt are all the people who didn't receive it (for one, initially we asked other people in the office (On same server, same e-mail domain etc...) but no one received it except us two who sent it out!)
