Mail doesn't start for over 10 minutes.

From: "John Collins" <john@PROTECTED>

In-Reply-To: ANNOUNCE Dada Mail 3.1 alpha 3 Released

Date: September 7th 2009

This started about a month ago on my main list; it's getting worse

I send out one, sometimes two emails a week to about 32,000 The
emails are typically around 150-160k, html (the other list, a new one, is working fine, but the list is much
smaller and the emails are also much smaller and the list has no
history)

What's happening is the mail doesn't want to start sending It tries
over and over, refreshing the status screen every 10 secs The delay
getting longer and can be as much as 5 mins or more before it starts
Once it starts all is fine including the send speed (about 6,000-7,000
per hour)

The Monitor screen says that Dada is "Restarting the Mailing " It
does this a bunch of times and then displays a message that the
mailing appears to be stopped Nevertheless, it still refreshes every
10 secs until it eventually starts I even had a 500 server error on
one refresh and had to restart the vps

I have long suspected an issue with the monitor screen and have
wondered if it tries to redraw the screen before a process is through
and that could be tripping errors Is it possible to change the
refresh rate from 10 to 60 secs?

FWIW, this is a very old list I compared the settings table (mysql)
to a much newer list and found some extra numbered rows in the problem
list Example = MNM 45257638092320081015102825,http://www IEmixer com MNM 780409719989 20081015102825,http://www meetingsandmixers com/sp where MON id the list short name THere's a couple dozen of these I wondered if there was some corruption in the settings

Got a whole lot of Dada errors here's the log [Mon Sep 7 13:05:48 2009] mail cgi: Reloading message at /DADA/Mail/ MailOut pm line 1636 [Mon Sep 7 13:05:50 2009] mail cgi: couldn't
