In your cPanel you should see Fantastico icon.

In there you can install PHPList, which is the BEST mailing list, ever.

Let us know if you install it ok!

Just remember, no more than 300 emails per hour (if you are on a shared server)... If you plan to send more than that, I think there is a config parameter you can set that will limit it to the 300...

There sure is. Just edit this in the config.php file:

Code:

# define the amount of emails you want to send per period. If 0, batch processing
# is disabled
define("MAILQUEUE_BATCH_SIZE",0);

# define the length of one batch processing period, in seconds (3600 is an hour)
define("MAILQUEUE_BATCH_PERIOD",3600);

Should be self explanatory.

Thanks You Guys; however i don't think i'll be going over 300 emails an hour, my fingers will be numb, maybe about 30 tops.

Well, if you had 400 recipients, and you sent 1 email... It would kick over the limit.

True True.

, what happens when your over the limit?

They send Removed to your house and he busts your kneecaps...

Good question... I think maybe a suspension of your script until you modify the config to meet usage standards.
