Need hosting with unlimited e-mails

Hello,

I am currently with Hostgator who have an email limit on all of their packages (I believe) of 200 per hour.

I have 6000+ e-mails to send out a weekly newsletter and when using hostgator, even with just sending 200 e-mails, most people do not get them.

The board is fairly small, 9000 members, 50,000 posts.

Any shared hosting plans with unlimited e-mailing that anyone would recommend? Ideally by someone who sends a large amount of e-mails regularly with a lot of success.

I'm spending $14.99/month so far and the site is running well (except the e-mail problems).

Thanks

That is what happens to me, but I'm pretty sure it is far less than half that even get it.

Well, you won't be able to send emails to all 9,000 members on a shared server.

Not even if I sent 1000 or so a day?

How many should I be able to send on a shared server?

Well maybe we can send 50 emails per shot?

for me the biggest problem is the emails dont send, secondly they end up in junkmail.

So no-one here sends out fairly regular successful e-mails using their vbulletin board? If you do, let me know what hosting you use.

I can send 2000 in 1 day xD

If I send an e-mail with a VALID reason on why i should send over 6000 e-mail within 1 hour. Than they can approve it for me.

i'm a hostgator reseller, and i don't see why you would not be able to discuss the situation with the techies there... did you ever asked at least... they could promote your account to a higher level if you really need to send that much of emails regularly...

here are the actual policy for the emails on HG: http://www.hostgator.com/mailpolicy.shtml

btw, why would you need to send 9000 emails in a single shot... you want to spam all your members with communiqu?s ?!... just make an announcement on your forum.
