PrateekSaxena Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Hi,I wanted to know how many emails I can sent through the PHP mail() function in the Premium Plan of Go Daddy Hosting? Also does anyone know how many emails does the Yahoo Small business plan allow me to send through PHP?Thanks,Prateek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenon Design Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 It should be unlimited. I dont know of any hosting that does restrict the outgoing mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skemcin Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 The only limitation you might run into is a server timeout setting for php. Since the clock starts ticking when the page is requested, if you have 100,000 emails to be delivered and you try to do it all at once, then the server will think the page has timed out since it will take so long to do that.Besides that, you do not want to send more than 250 emails at a time within one minute of each other anyway, to avoid being considered spam. So, if you throttle the delivery to where you send 250 emails then the page reloads itself and then picks up the next 250, etc. then you should be set.
