I have a large forum (about 80,000). I installed the mod and set batch size (in Email options) to 70 with a 6 second delay, and to process every 10 mins in the scheduled tasks. When I attempt to send emails from ACP> Users> "Send emails to users" the process will begin and it shows me emails sending successfully every 6 seconds. (on that page Emails to send at once is set to 500).

Is it possible for me to NOT keep this page open? It would take it like 8 days to run and I'm certain it would timeout within an hour. How do I get this process to work after leaving the emailing page, or how do I get it to go to the queue so it can then be sent out slowly?
