Geeklog Forums

One feature of Geeklog is /admin/mail.php, for sending a mail to every user that we have in our database, and the mails are sent at the same time... A great idea could be to add a little timeout between sends (for example, 2 seconds). Doing the sending without timeout, we can either make suffer our MTA or even get our IP blacklisted on some ISP that realizes that we have sent lots of mails thinking that it's spam. I've done a mailing now and I left my box without resources (postfix eaten all) and at the end, the last mails that should go to @hotmail.com was refused. I've add one line on the file /admin/mail.php, I think that would be okay. [Moderators, check it please!]. Line 187, near... if (!mail($til, stripslashes ($vars['subject']), stripslashes ($vars['message']), $headers)) { $failures[] .= $til; } else { $successes[] = $til; } //We add this: sleep(2); } Thanks!
