I put a thread up a few months back about sending 12k+ emails, It's now over 25,000 I need to send. Need to have them all out by the beginning of May.

I know if you send a certain amount a minute, a percentage of the emails just get bounced back. My question is does anybody know the limit you can send per minute?
Thanks for any help, had a look on webmaster forums, and not been very successful.

Depends on the outgoing mail server.
I've no real experience of it but you may be better setting up your own SMTP server on a network which will allow traffic to go out on that port. Then you're not bound by any anti-spam measures but you'll still get the data out there.

Ian setting up your own SMTP could work but if he hosts it on a home internet connection these are normally blocked by rule by most anti spam lists. They do a whois on the ip block and its normally marked as a home internet connection.
