    Default How long to wait for newsletter sending process?

    Currently I have over 1500 customers and everytime I go to send a newsletter or product notification, it would just show that it is processing for a LONG time. Now I am not sure how long I should wait or maybe it timed out.... So everytime, after maybe 1 hour, I would just close the broswer not knowing if it all got sent.....

    What should I do in this case?? Wait it out or is there a way I can tell it is being sent...

    Depending on your host, there may be a mails per hour limit and you would need to check with them about this.

    Normally 200-500 per hour or any other limit that they have seen fit to apply

    I have clients that use the standalone program mentioned in this post in conjunction with the Email Address Exporter utility to send out their newsletters to large audiences.

    Thank you for the reply...

    I see what you mean.

    But how could I select only 200-300 customers to send out to?
