Mass mailing with The Bat
 
#1

Hello,

I would like to use The Bat to send a message (only one time) to all our clients. I think the procedure to follow is this one:
https://www.ritlabs.com/en/support/help/70/#6638

So I created one address book group where I put the list of my clients (+/- 1,000). If I understood correctly, at the end of the procedure all the emails are put in the OUTBOX folder of the Bat and then they will be sent as soon as I click on "send queued mails".

Even if I use a professional domain name for sending mail, behind the SMTP server belongs to gmail.

My fear is to be blocked by gmail or to be considered a spammer if I send 1.000 individual emails at the same time. Is it risky?
How to avoid that? There is a way to send them (automatically) little by little and not all together (something like postponed mails)?

Obviously this is not a spam because it's our client database and it's a one shot mailing but I don't want to make mistakes

Any idea?

Thanks a lot

You know that for sending massmail using The Bat! the message template is required. In this template you should put a macro which will cause sending delay of each individual message. Delay of sending is selected randomly by another macro. So, to send your 1000 mails within 3 hours you shuld use following expression:
Code
%POSTPONE="%RANDOMNUMBER(180)m"

I would check with Gmail to see what is allowed when you use their servers.
I volunteer as a moderator to help keep the forum tidy. I do not work for Ritlabs SRL.
