I have a c# application that sends an email out to all employees in my database (not XPmail.)
I have over 300 employees and I was told it is a little slow. IS there anyway I can test the speed of CC’ing 300 employees and sending it out? I cant time stamp each email since its all carbon copied after the read loop in the database.
The first thing to check is whether you’re sending 300 e-mails to 1 person each or 1 e-mail bcc’d (not to or cc’d, bcc’d) to 300 people. If the former, you really should do the latter. Even better, you should have a distribution list set up on your server for this.
Regardless, the problem is almost certainly at your e-mail (smtp) server. There won’t be anything you can change in your code to make it faster, and using a different language or platform won’t help — it’s all up to the smtp server and the bandwidth available.
