TurboMail mailing lists

[Will]

Hi,

I'm using TurboMail very successfully to send registration mails and
the like, but I was wondering if it is practical to use it to send out
a mailing list. What I am concerned about, is that if I have a
thousand mails queued up, then the app will block when trying to send
out other site mail. Is this case? Any work-around?

Regards,

Will McGugan

The app won't block because the mail is inserted in a queue and worker threads
will process one mail after another.

But TurboMail has some problems when it comes to exception handling. I wrote
several patches and submitted them in the TurboMail bug tracker. Unfortunately,
the trac is invaded by spammers and Matthew Bevan did not respond to any of my
mails in the last 4 months - I guess he is quite busy...

But feel free asking smart questions regarding TurboMail, I think I'm able to
answer most of them. But don't forget to cc me as I don't have the time to read
this group regularly.

TurboMail is designed to send e-mails asynchronously, using its own
thread pool. Your main app shouldn't block, but I've never tried to
push it with loads of e-mails in one go.
