Obviously alot of people don't post on this forum...but I figured I would give it a shot anyhow! I am not too familiar with configuring Sendmail (and I don't still get what the hell M4 is)...but I know what I am doing to an extent. I just need some help with possibly a configuration directive (a time out maybe)...here is my scenario:
I have a list of about 20,000 subscribed emails (I am running FreeBSD). I'm using a PHP script that I've written to query a mySQL database for email address's and then send an email out to each one. But my problem is that I am only able to send 1,000 or so at a time. I believe this is a problem from within Sendmail because I have already setup my Server & PHP to allow no time outs whatsoever! --I've been trying to figure this out for a day or 2 now.
I have done some error handling / debugging and it looks like the connection status is Normal & OK between my script, the server, the client and the database...SO, that means it must be Sendmail timing out. I have tried setting up Multiple Queues, and that did not help any. The reason why I think it is timing out and not hitting a message send limit is because I have had it give me the same error/problem with only 200 - 500 messages being sent from within the same length of time as it took to send 1,000+ (I have tested this!). SENDMAIL MUST BE TIMING OUT!
Can anyone help me?? - PAINKILLER
