Spool period
July 31, 2010, 02:24:53 am
Is the Spool Period setting still of any use?  Or is the sending process controlled entirely by how often the cron job is being run?

So if I want to send a maximum number of 500 emails every 10 min, I should set the Batch Limit to 500 and set the cron job to run every 10 min.  Is that correct?

Thanks!
