Best Way To Send A Mass Emails

Dec 20, 2008

Every month or two, we like to send our members a newsletter-type email which just informs them about what's happening over in our website and community. We have over 350,000 accounts registered, so there's quite a few emails to be sent each time.

I'm currently using cPanel with Exim and SwiftMailer to send the members an email through PHP. The way I do it currently is import all the email addresses to a separate table then email 500-1000 at a time. This is controlled by a Cron job.

I'm finding Exim to be extremely slow and the queue has built up to 190,000 as I type this (the email process started last week).

My question is this. What's the best software, whether it be a program or a script of some form, to send an email to such amount of users? Or if anyone knows any way to 'tweak' Exim to handle such mass-emails.

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Outgoing Mail Control Being Hijacked Mass Email Send Out

May 4, 2015

I keep having certain domains being hijacked and mass emails being sent from them somehow. I've disabled mail within domain control panel for each domain and issue keeps occurring. I've limited # of emails as well to 2-5 per hour but now so many are trying to be sent from my server it is clogging up mail queue and I have to log into server via ssh and run postsuper -d ALL every day or two. It is very frustrating. The only way I can stop it is to disable domain in plesk panel but that is not an option.

What can I do to find the cause of this issue and stop it?

Stop Client Sending Mass Emails

Aug 11, 2008

it's in my clients contract that they must use our email marketing software to send out mass emails.

we are running WHM with the clients website on a cpanel account.

is there a way for me to monitor the email traffic so i know if they send out emails to more than 50+ recipients at a time?

im aware that they are sending emails through their desktops using normal smtp accounts, so need a way to prevent this if it's possible.

Sending Mass Emails From Desktop Or Host + VPS

Aug 3, 2008

It is not about sending SPAM.

I have broadband from cable company and they do not let me send mass email (over 100) at one time. I guess on top of that Web Hosting company (having my domain) has some limit to use smtp.

I want to send text email (not HTML). I do not want to use Email marketing companies (as many suffix their brand in message) and perhaps ripe good benefits via viral marketing at subscribers' cost.

Option - A
===========
I am thinking to use desktop (if technically feasible) and want to use mass smtp with VPS hosting company (if they are open), within their TOS though.

Can VPS somehow be used (for mass smtp) without relocating my domain to new VPS?

Would there still be an issue as I will be using Desktop and routing emails through cable's as cable's company's limit will still be enforced?

If answer is yes, I guess I am left with no choice but to use Web server based mailing solution.

Option - B
==========

In that case, I guess something like phplist needs to be used.

Then my web hosting company would still not be open to use their smtp (or might have set some limits on smtp), so presumabily some blending (using phplist on my hosting and mass smtp on VPS) can be tried.

Solution?
=========

Am I thinking correct? If not, please give me some pointers to bring me to right track.

Any recommendation about VPS who may be open to mass smtp.

I am purposely not mixing multi-threading yet. QMail is default email s/w with my hosting and I guess VPS might also have qmail.

To Send 3.6 Million Emails

Sep 22, 2007

to send 3.6 million emails over a week period of time. it is for a client that wants to send an email about their new account policies. these users are clients from different domains. how can this be done.

They have an exchange server onsite. should they use that server or do you recommend going through a service? if so whom do you recommend that is good?

Do you recommend going with a dedciated server for email? what server specs?
the email will not have an attachment just a few lines and a link to their own site.
with whatever solution you recommend? please give me price ranges?

Dell and such enterprise companies send emails all the time with that many emails and more to external clients... how do they do it.

I just do not want to get black listed and want to make sure all or most of they clients get it.

How To Make Exim Send Out Only Emails From Localdomains

May 16, 2009

I've looked through my exim logs a number of times and I see emails being sent out with "from:" fields with email addresses of other domains. Usually they are spam related and fraudulent.

How can exim be setup to only send out emails that have localdomains in their from fields?

E.g. if I have account bob.com on my server then the owner of bob.com can only send out emails "xxxx@bob.com" no matter what else he tries to do that's all exim will send out.

How can you get exim to do this? I have been using filtering to block commonly spammed domains like aol.com hotmail.com etc - any emails sent out with these in their from fields are filtered and blocked - but rather building up a larger and larger filter of commonly abused domains - why not just block everything except domains on your server.

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Sites Do Not Send Emails

Apr 30, 2015

Started after last update 12.0.18 Update #44 (on CloudLinux): I can send mail wia created mailboxes, but sites can not send mail, contact forms say "Failed to send your message." maillog file also do not indicate sending any messages from domains. Wordpress restore password claims:

"The e-mail could not be sent.
Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function."
php.ini is default:
safe_mode = Off
disable_functions = is empty

The issue about not sending mail from domains was - old versions of LVE anf CageFS are incompatible with latest plesk update, updating them caused all sites in Cagefs to throw error 500 with log string: "SecureLVE jail error Invalid regexps: no match for path to base home directory". It was fixed by changing cagefs.base.home.dirs regexp to the real sites folder location. Enabling cagefs back removed one of the files it shouldn't:

"Removed file /var/cagefs/81/xxx/etc/php.d/soap.ini"
So be carefull to place necesssary files back.
For now everything works.

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Can't Receive And Send Emails

Oct 16, 2014

I just moved from DirectAdmin to Parallels Plesk and already love the interface. Much better than DA in my opinion.

Let's get to the problem:

When I make a new email account I can login to this account on webmail.domain.com (roundcube) and receive and send emails. Now when I want to use this account on Apple Mail i'm not sure which ports I need to use.

For the incoming mail server I use: 143
For the outgoing mail server I use: 587

Now when I look at my mailbox it gives me a warning sign. The outgoing mail server gives a green dot, but the incoming mail server gives me a red dot.

- So sending mails works.
- And receiving mails don't work.

I am using IMAP and have enabled the SSL box. I don't know if i need to check this, because i'm not running on an SSL certificate.

Are the ports that i'm using right? And should I enable the SSL checkbox?
