Hello,

I created a newsletter on my website and try to send it to my 500 subscribers. But it seems that only the first 50 emails on my database got the newsletter. And I found out that because we are in a shared hosting there is a limitation set in sending emails. There is a limit of 50 emails per 5 minutes and 200 per hour. So, I modify my sending script and use sleep() function. It sends 50 emails then sleep for 5 minutes then send then sleep and so on. But I know that this is not a good idea most of all when your subscribers turns to thousand. So can you recommend any method/solution for me to send a large size of emails in one go. I'm using PHP.

Thank you very much.

Science problem is on your hosting the only hosting provider will solve this problem. (My opinions)

Use an external SMTP server, your host's SMTP Server won't have restrictions (usually). You could also always use Gmail's, etc.
