TCH-Tim Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I started a mailing list for one of my sites but it seems like it takes forever for messages to actually get sent out to recipients when I send to the list's address. Is that normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCH-Don Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 It may depend on where you are sending the list to, if at your own site address here at TCH, it should not take long at all if at a free e-mail it may take a while because of many others lined up to be received as well. I have not tried mailman because it seems limited I went with Dadamail and I can batch the list to send 10 e-mails per minute and not be a load on the server. And it sends to my address very fast.

TCH-Tim Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 Of course the solution is always easier than it seems. When sending from Outlook, I was sending a message to the list from an account that was not a list member, and so of course it was being filtered and just sitting there waiting for approval. First time running a mailing list, so I guess there's a little big of a learning curve. Sorry to waste disk space on this one, but thanks for caring.

TCH-Thomas Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 I´m glad you solved it. And don´t be sorry for wasting disk space on this. We have all been in similar situations many times. Also, moving for organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
