Dear All,

I want to develop application that send emails to several groups of
our users as notification messages. If one of the groups are about
10,000 and I need to notify them, and that they all somewhat received
the notification at about the same time. Is it possible to do this
with Google App Engine ?

Note that, the notification message will vary... like a mail merge.
For example, a message like a "Dear [user]" where [user] will be
replaced by our user's real name.

Thanks in advance for any response that can give us a clue where we
will develop further with Google App Engine for this application.

Hi Wim,


Thanks for the information. But can Google App Engine handle that task
of sending mail... said 2,000 mails / minute ? I'm reading about Task
Queue, but have no idea on implementing it yet.

I need to send them in a short period of time as near real time
notifications. Please advice on the strategy.

You need Billing Enabled Default Quota.
Maximum Rate 5,100 recipients/minute, 7,400,000 recipients maximum per day.
Via taskqueue (count to the quotas) (one mail per task?) app engine is going parallel.
I have no experience with this kind off mail amounts, a few mails per minute and taskqueues work good for me.
I read in the mails that taskqueues can sometimes take more time, but for me tasks are very fast.
