asp_cdo thread: best way to to work with mailing list


Message #1 by "Ryan Tran" <tdtran10@y...> on Fri, 12 Oct 2001 11:03:49
My company has about 50000 emails (in a database).  We want to send a 

newsletter to our customers for every 2 weeeks.  We are thinking which way 

is the best solution for this kind of service.  I wrote a CDONTS Email 

script, it works fine, but the problem is that it doesn't handle to send 

out 50000 emails at a time.  I have to send out 10000 email only at a 

time.  Is this any other way to send email without using CDONTS? 

we have DSL line connect to the internet.

Hi Ryan et al, this is an interesting point as we have been sending out a

CDO mail using BCC to around 5500 people and we have had problems with IIS

(NT4 Option pack 4 etc with SQL 7 server dbase) falling over.

Is there a limit on CDO and or on BCC's?



Any assistance tip etc



Thanks again



Sam

What is the  error message? I sent out 10000 at a time

without problem. You may adjust the time for asp

script (in IIS4.0 Admin section).

Hi Ryan, thanks for getting back to me..

I checked to timeouts etc. There was no error message just IIS fell over and

needed a cold reboot..

I just state it was on a v old Dell 1300..

Is 1000 the max for CDO? (I have not got it doing the mails in batches of

300)



Thanks



Sam
