Email Throttling

[rafiqasad]

Hello every one
I want to send bulk emails. Like I want to send newsletter to hundred of different email address, but I server allows me to send limited number of emails per hour or minutes. Here a technique of email throttling is use for delaying emails. I haven't any idea of using this technique of email throttling. Please some one guide and help me in this regard

Step 1. Write all the email addresses and a copy of the email to be sent to a database.

Step 2. Set up a script that reads so many emails from the database and sends the email to them. It can either delete the email addresses from the database or flag them as sent.

Step 3. Set up a cron job to run the script from step 2 at regular intervals.
