Sending Bulk Email
23/10/09 12:54
When using a bulk / batch email sending program such as R10BatchMail you need to input the details of your email provider. These details are know as SMTP, Simple Mail Transport Protocol, and they consist of a User name, a Password, a Server and a Port.
Your batch email program does the job of forwarding the email to the SMTP provider and the SMTP provider does the job of actually delivering the email to the recipient.
We all have an SMTP provider but it is likely that this provider will object should we intended to send more than a few hundred emails per day. If our database consists of several thousand customers that we need to communicate with via email then we should be looking at something like the service provided by AuthSMTP.
These guys provide a virtually unlimited email sending capability. Their prices are annual and based on a given number of emails per month. Have a look, I’m happy with them
