10
Version 2.0.0 rc2 (Fri, Nov 16 2007), interim release

13
  $mail->do_verp = true;

******************
20
A note on sending bulk emails:
21

    
22
If the email you are sending is not personalized, consider using the 
23
"undisclosed-recipient:;" strategy. That is, put all of your recipients
24
in the Bcc field and set the To field to "undisclosed-recipients:;". 
25
It's a lot faster (only one send) and saves quite a bit on resources.
26
Contrary to some opinions, this will not get you listed in spam engines -
27
it's a legitimate way for you to send emails.
28

    
29
A partial example for use with PHPMailer:
30

    
31
$mail->AddAddress("undisclosed-recipients:;");
32
$mail->AddBCC("email1@anydomain.com,email2@anyotherdomain.com,email3@anyalternatedomain.com");
33

    
34
Many email service providers restrict the number of emails that can be sent
35
in any given time period. Often that is between 50 - 60 emails maximum
36
per hour or per send session.
37

    
38
If that's the case, then break up your Bcc lists into chunks that are one
39
less than your limit, and put a pause in your script.
