    I want to insert a delay between two emails set with internal php mailer, I want to delay .5 seconds: php: sleep(.5);
    where can I insert that?

    I sent 3000 mails with thunderbird mail merge for 5 times so far. Never had problems sending, but now problems with this plugin, only 25% reach the receivers, when sending 500 emails every 10 minutes, I know it because of autoresponder emails that I counted. Sending only 100 emails every 10 min is much better. Thunderbird is slow, always places a copy into sent folder. So makes automatically a pause of about .5 seconds. So I want to insert a pause of .5 seconds after each mail that was sent, I want to simulate the successful sending with thunderbird “mail merge” addon.

    I have PRO license. Please tell me where I can insert that “sleep”.

    thx. And where is the forum for PRO version?

    You mean dashboard menu “help” , then click to “contact us” ?
    There I get no answer, a popup appears where I can’t attach screenshots. Thats no “help”.

    You mean fakebook “secret club”?

    @correction: I sent not with php mailer, but with “SMTP”-Mail. Thats the same as thunderbird uses, right? Insert TLS as encryption,user, password, port. All the same. I’m sure with delay all emails arrive it time in futre. The “burst” of 100 emails within few seconds is the fault, I guess.

    Yesterday I got answer from support with code for functions.php, thank you. And solved! I can delay email sending now with arbitrary size of seconds. 🙂

    Hi Eckard,

    Thanks for your confirmation.

    Glad to hear that now you are able to add a delay between two emails with the help of a custom code.

    Since the issue is now resolved, I am closing this thread.

    Feel free to open a new thread in case if you have any further queries.

    Thank you.
