| Hi Vineshwar, as discussed, please note the following: - Emails are throttled using the following rules:
- Menu "Global Administration ~> Process Setup" determines how often the system will attempt to send out a batch of Emails. If the interval is set to 600 seconds, this means that every 10 minutes, the system will try and send out emails.
- Mail Settings in Company Administration have throttle limits. These determine how many emails get set out for each email batch.
- If you have multiple companies in a database, note that item 1.1 above is for each Database, while configuration item 1.2 is by Company. Set the numbers keeping these two rules in mind.
- If you are in a multi-company environment and require a lot of emails to go through, you should configure 1.1 to run more frequently. Calculate the numbers based on the volume and frequency while keeping in mind Spam Filtering requirements from your mail provider.
- We noted that when the application pool stops, the email queue can accumulate a large number of emails and therefore the queue is large in the mornings.
Figure 1 - Mail Settings:
 Next Step: Sanjay to work out if there is merit in running the Process in 1.1 above for each company, instead of for each database. |

| Further explanation regarding Comment 1 item 2: - The Throttle Limit is based on the company.
- When there are multiple emails in a queue, emails are sent on a first come first serve basis. Each item in the queue is picked up the email throttle used to determine how many emails to send.
In Multiple Company Environments, you can do the following to speed up emails: - Set the Email scheduler to run every minute
- Set each company throttle limit to 20+

| Hi Vineshwar, are the emails in the queue going through fast enough?
I checked Jack's database and all emails are sent within 80 minutes, even the queued ones at 6 am.
Do you need any further action on this case? |

| Hi Guys, we have confirmed that the following settings are best for most clients: - Set the configuration "_SendPerMinute" to 50
- Set the Email Scheduler to 60 seconds.
This will ensure that for all companies in the database, we can handle sending 50 emails per minute or 500 per 10-minute interval. The documentation has been updated. Closing case, |
