Max Emails per hour
Is there a way to stagger the number of emails sent per hour when a campaign is sent?
My provider limits it to 100/per hour. I found the limit per second, but it would be nice to limit how many are sent so I don't trigger the limits and have failed to deliver emails.
Email-sending services like AmazonSES / Mailgun / Sendgid or Elastic Mail are cheap and affordable. So you should use a good provider who does not have those type of limit.
Shahjahan Jewel that doesn't help though. Either way we should be able to limit the number sent per hour.
Also, how do we completely remove a contact?
Jeff Brigman We don't have any plan to add hourly limit for sending emails. If we want to do that, we have to re-design our whole email-sending queue system. Also I don't think that's a useful feature for most our users.
if you want to remove a contact, then you can just select the contact and delete.
Shahjahan Jewel Jeff Brigman I'm also interested in having a configuration to send emails per hour.
my provider limits me to 500 emails per hour.
It would be a great feature.
I am using FluentSMTP.
Couldn't this change be done through some wordpress function?
Hi Jeff. Have you checked with your provider to see if they have a separate 'bulk' SMTP server that you can send through? Ours does and that allows 1000 mails per hour, instead of 100 per hour. Our mail-out volume is not that large so I currently just segment the contact list into 3 segments of less than 1000 each, and schedule those to go at say 06:00, 07:00 and 08:00. Long-term though, we will probably have to move to us a mail-sent service. Cheers, Tim
Tim Weston unfortunately it's on a shared server, so it's not an option. If it was on my VPS that would be a different story because I have greater control.
I may segment the list as well which would be the same as what I'm asking for.
All SMTP providers tell you about the sending limits per hour.
For a more optimized use of Fluent CRM, it would be very useful to have this option.
Perhaps it can be configured in Fluent SMTP specifically for Fluent CRM.
