Re: Sending out mass mail without having timeout problems ..

Hi, If you will send a lot of e-mails, I recomend you, that use under the Console: $rush nohup php -q file_send_email.php & The nohup, tell to maquine that don't hang up until finished. php -q (quiet mode) and the last character (&) for let the process in background. It's only works on *nix Boxes, I don't think that will work under M$ windows.
