I'm curious about the limits of my current method of sending out e-
mail w/ php and possibly alternatives.
Right now, I have a mysql DB of registered users. I have a PHP file
accessed daily that runs through the DB and sends e-mails (SMTP
mailer) w/ personalized messages (also from the DB) to the users.
Right now I've only got a few e-mails it needs to send per day so it
only takes a second or two for the file to load/run, but this may
change to a few hundred pretty soon (new system, diff. content). The
content is almost all text, ~1 page long for each person. Does anyone
have any idea how many e-mails I could send out w/ this method
reliably? If the list becomes 100, instead of just a few, think it
will still work? 1000? more?
I find a lot of mass mailer services online, but I can't seem to find
ones that can run through a php code to determine content by user
(personalized). Are there alternatives to my current system that
anyone knows of?
Any thoughts will be appreciated. Thanks!!
