WebCat for mass emailings

numero = 14575
interpreted = N
texte = We have WebCat set up to function as a pseudo-listserver. It is sending out snow reports for ski areas. The problem is that Emailer crawls through them. We are currently sending out to about 1500 addresses, and it is taking over an hour to get all those emails out (and that is just one ski area). Would we be better off just running it through ListStar? Will ListStar perform faster?Also, can ListStar function with EIMS? Any ideas how we could have the Listserv handled by another server (UNIX), while we still maintain control of the list with WebCat?Thanks.Trevor Crist http://www.digitalfrontier.com Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
