Send Email Question
May 22, 2012, 07:15:06 pm
hey guys, since we upgraded to 4, our clients notice they suddenly cannot send emails to more than 50 contacts using the standard send email function, which they had been finding quite handy, we have many sites with advanced functions, some hooks, etc, and are not exactly sanguine about quickly deploying civimail, plus the clients organizations are filled with long-time members -- in short, is there a way to lift this limitation? they havent had too many problems with bounce-backs as most of their contacts trust the server. any advice appreciated, thanks! H

No UI setting for this as yet. You will need to hack the code to increase the limit:

CRM/Contact/Form/Task/EmailCommon.php.

CONST MAX_EMAILS_KILL_SWITCH

is the magic number

i see, I understand it's not optimal to hack in this way and deviate from the core but is it even advisable, ie would it impact any other civi functions?

U'll need to maintain and apply the patch on every upgrade

Dont think it impacts other functions, if it does u'll probably figure it out real soon
