Bulk Mail

Hi All

My company decided to send email to nearly 20000 users on a weekly basis.

=> I have the list of email address in a database.

? How can I send email to so many addresses. I possible cannot make it into a string and put in to address string of javamail.

? Any pointers on how to do this using javamail.

? Are there any open source/commercial softwares which can do this.

? I heard ISP has limitations, more than some amount of email ISP treats it as SPAM, how do we get over it.

? Also since this is not SPAM email, how can we make sure that email gets delivered.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks

Of course there are a lot of bulk email products you can buy,

as well as services you can contract to send such email for you.

When you're sending each message, you probably don't want each

recipient to see the addresses of all other 19999 recipients. You

probably want each recipient to get their own message, possibly

with text customized to the recipient.

So, write a loop! Compose and send each recipient their own message.

See the JavaMail FAQ for more information.
