overload server by mass mailing help
 

My host keeps suspending my account due to overload to thier server by exim processes. ie They only allow only 300 mails for 1 domain per hour. and i have over 4000 members in my forum .I mass mail my forum members weekly how can i solve this problem ? thanks in advance

Use the "Batch Email Sending" options in the Admin CP (under vBulletin Options).

you would also like to view this mod that sends mails based on a cron job !!

Give thanks veenuisthebest and Dismounted .How that many of my members are spammers how do i delete them? manual deleting is taking a lot of my time

i recommend banning their username instead of deleting and allow posting for only Registered users group and above, not for users awaiting email confirmation.

Now, whenever you ban a username, their email gets banned too. So, they'll have to register again with a new username and email and confirm it as well.

If still they take too much pains to register and confirm, simply ban their IP range.
This would help you reduce spamming to a great extent !!

My forum has got like 4000 registered members over 3000 are spammers they dont post but they are registered with funny email adresses like deammafus@mymail-in.net,mailsender85...ozitifff.co m .banning 3000 usernames will take me ages . i want to get rid of them how do i deal with this issue ?

mann.... 3000 spammers.. !!!!

Go to admincp->users->prune/move users

Choose usergroup
give a value for Has not logged on for x days
Posts is less than 0

Hit find and All users with the above filters would display.. hopefully these are the users you are looking for (spammers). Simply delete them

The option is set to 10 emails per batch does that mean 10 emails will be sent per hr ?
