Justin (and anyone else!) - any thoughts on optimum send rates of
Batch vs non-Batch and how many to send per batch?

We were doing 1 per batch, and then a 0 001 wait (basically as fast
as the server can go), but is there any downsize in sending more
than 1 email per batch?

Was thinking that maybe more messages per batch might increase SPAM
ratings (if they are sent as BCCs or similar) or can we do say 50
per batch, and then a 1 second rate which sounds sensible?

I really don't think so I kind of think of batch settings primarily
to slow things down for hosts that only allow you to send < 500
messages/hour The problem you'd probably come across if you're trying
to send very very very fast is multiple messages to the same service
too fast If you send, say Yahoo! Mail 50 messages in a course of a
few seconds, they get a little suspicious

Dada Mail won't be sorting email addresses by domain when it mass
sends out, so it shouldn't be a major cause of alarm The actual time
overhead of sending 50 messages is really going to discount much of
the possibility that you'll hit one domain too much

I somewhat suggest keeping batch sending on, as I don't test without
it! But the whole batch sending stuff will add overhead I'd be
surprised if you didn't get a few percent increase in speed by turning
it off completely
