I sent a mass e-mail last night for the first time and this morning I was getting complaints of people receiving it over and over again. Every 4-15 minutes. People received around 100 of the same e-mail. You can imagine how annoying that would be if you have your cellphone hooked to your e-mail. Anyways, any idea why this happened? I had the mail set to use the PHP mailer and had to turn it to SMTP with no server info to stop the e-mails from going out.
Also - this didn't happen to everybody. Most people only received the one e-mail as intended.
I just entered in the SMTP info to get the notifications going again and it's not sending them. I know I have the info correct.
If I turn back on PHP mail do you think the forums will start spamming that e-mail again?
