 * In Settings -> Email Settings there is this setting, which recipients does it
   refer to? If I select #1, who will receive the email?
 * **Restrict the number of recipients per email to (0 for unlimited)**

 * It still sends to all subscribers but trailers the number of emails sent by using
   the email BCC header.
 * For example if you have 100 subscribers and you set 1 recipient per email then
   100 emails are sent. Iy you set 25 recipients per email then 4 emails are sent,
   each with 25 subscribers in the BCC header.
 * This used to be a useful way to work around hosting limitations but many hosting
   providers count the number of recipients now rather than just emails so it is
   way less useful now than it used to be so he default setting is 1.

 * I have no control directly on the free version of Subscribe2 anymore but out 
   of curiosity, what change would you propose?

 * #2 changes:
 * 1. Be able to select the users who receive the email
 * 2. Show the user’s subscription time (now there is only the date)

 * You second point is simple enough and will be in the next release of the paid
   version that I develop.
 * You can currently control user subscriptions to have control over who gets the
   email. I’m not sure how else this might be made to work in a user useful way.

 * The second point you can also put in the free version, it is not an important
   option, it is a completion.

 * As I said above:

 * “I have no control directly on the free version of Subscribe2 anymore” so unfortunately
   I cannot put this in the free version.
