Question regarding "Sendmail"
Hello,
I am not sure if this list is the proper place to ask this question I am trying to run DADA mail many months now I've run it on my normal server once, it was fine (June) I've run it second time (July), and the administrator suspended my account I've got 8k+ recipients and 50k visitors per month, so it was inconvenient It took them 3 days to set it back, after a lot of email exchanges I 've got another domain Run it once, fine (Oct) Run it second time (Nov), my account is suspended again This time, my normal website is ok! (it was on different host) Now the administrator of the host site was a lot more helpful and informative!
He said that he suspended my account after 2200 emails (out of 8000), as they were all sent "in one minute or so" and the mail server collapsed blocking 1 5k other users I told him to check it again, as I had set it to 5 messages/5secs, so it should have taken a lot longer He checked again and verified that all those messages were sent in very short period of time, "A LOT LESS" time than 5msg/5secs and very close to "one minute or so" He asked me to re-install DADA mail from scratch, he said that 5msgs/5secs is fine, but DADA has had similar problems before (from other users) I promised I would do, and reinstated my account
So, the question is this: has this ever happened before to anybody? Is this a real problem or not? Do I need to do anything? Is the sendmail flow rate real, or the sendmail gets or the requests and is only starting sending the messages after some time (so, it sends many of them simultaneously)?
Sorry if this list is out of this scope In this case, please let me know where I should address my question
Regards,
Andreas
