phplist forums

We have a huge list of recep. and sending in a random order is important because receiving servers will not accept mails coming in to fast from the same sender.

To randomize the sending order would be one trick to get around the problem I guess. But how do i accomplish sending in random?

Thanks /Mattias

Giving this a bump because this is important for me, as well, and for the same reason.

This is a key feature. Looking further for instuctions to randomize order.

phplist doesn't provide a way to alter the order of sending emails.

You can look at domain throttling, see the config.php file, if you want to restrict the rate at which phplist sends to each domain, but in my experience it slows down the actual send rate significantly.

Thanks for you reply Duncan.

I understand that phpList doesn't include that feature. Could you guide me to the scripts that contain the sending logic? Some developer guide? I have some PHP progamming knowledge, so I will try to make the modification to shuffle the batch to deliver on each run.

Regards.

The sql that selects subscribes is in the file admin/actions/processqueue.php at line 795.
