Joomla 1.6 user import - Email Settings
As soon you get in User Import tab, down in page is an option:
Email Settings
Send emails to new users (that don't exist in the database) after import
This option is not checked by default and you must be very careful when using it.
Why? because sending emails to users from your server can be limited by your hosting company.
What this mean? if you have a list to import that have 100-200 users will not be a problem, but what about a list with 10K? your server support to send bulk emails to so many?
Like a sample, for an hosting company the policy said like that:
Message will not be accepted by mailserver if total number of recipients, listed in To, Carbon Copy and Blind Carbon Copy fields exceeds 25 (It will be rejected as “452 4.5.3 Too many recipients”)
#
By default, it is allowed to send up to 300 messages per day. Further messages will be dropped without any notification (mailserver will issue afformative reply, but message will be dropped)
#
By default, it is allowed to send up to 5000 messages per month. Further messages will be dropped without any notification (mailserver will issue affirmative reply, but message will be dropped)
So pay attention using it!
