I have a php script that looks at a CSV file that contains the name and
email of the person. It then goes through the list of names/emails one
at a time and sends them an email. It varies on how many names are
there, but usually around 10,000 - 20,000.
We don't have to worry about greylisting because we are an approved
supplier to this list.
After reading a few of the comments here, I definitely want to so the
timing in my script instead of cron, so I'll be able to break it and
then start it back up as soon as it's 10:00 PM again.
