ali_kiyani Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 HelloI have a client who wants to send newsletter to 30,000 users. I told him that I can write a script that will send letter one by one but he asked if there is any way we can send letters at once?What is the best method to send out 30000 newsletters? Please advise. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/31663-best-method-to-send-newsletters/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Use a mailer program like ezmlm. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/31663-best-method-to-send-newsletters/#findComment-146779 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ted_chou12 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 is better to group them like 100 a group or something so the page dont load too slow. and after one page finishes it redirects to the second 100, so you will have a total of 300 or something to send.

ali_kiyani Posted January 9, 2007 Author Share Posted January 9, 2007 Ok I downloaded Ezmlm from herehttp://www.unixpimps.org/software/ezmlm-php/It's ezmlm-php-2.0.tar.gz.I am not sure if I downloaded the correct version or not because the ones available here http://www.ezmlm.org/archive/5.1.1/ are very complex and I don't know which file to install and how. Is there a basic ezmlm tutorial available?Secondly after installing the above file I am getting an error. You can see it here http://www.loopfile.com/mailinglist/ I am getting this error because it cannot find the ezmlm archive folder!! I have no idea what it is so any help will be appreciated. You need to define it in ezmlm.php configuration. The example given in that file is /usr/home/lists/ragga-jungle. This seems like a directory where mailing list archives are saved!? Any idea!?Thanks Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/31663-best-method-to-send-newsletters/#findComment-156644 Share on other sites More sharing options...
