 * Having issue with Sendpress queue. I’m using my sites server to send the emails
   and they send find but the issue is the emails are being sent and recvied 3 times
   to each contact.
 * Is there anyway to change the max send attempts from 3 to 1? Or is there another
   fix you can think of thats causing the emails to be sent 3 times to the same 
   contacts?
 * Cheers,
    Neal

 * The way it is supposed to work is that once there is a successful email sent,
   it won’t try again. It will be deleted from the queue. Could you tell me what
   version of WordPress you are using and how you are sending? For example, are 
   you sending through your website or through Gmail? It’s possible you have found
   a bug, but I have not heard this particular one reported before. What version
   of SendPress are you running?

 * Hey thanks for the reply!
    Both are up to date, using version 3.4.2 for wordpress
   and 0.8.7.1 for sendpress.
 * We’re using the sites to send the emails. Like you said its as if a completed
   send isnt registering with the queue, so it just attempts a send again until 
   it hits max attempts. I have tried sending to militply parties on different email
   platforms and all them reported receiving 3 consecutive emails.

 * Hi Kellynt,
 * We made some adjustments to how the queue sends email in 0.8.8. If you still 
   have the problem please let us know.
 * Thanks,
    Josh
