I am new to open source but old to development. I've been using opensmtp for about 2 days in a bulk email app i built. it works but is slow particularly when sending the same message to multiple recipients as separate emails. Ive tweaked it a bit so that it connects outside the send function and uses the same connection repeatedly to send multiple msgs. I'll be testing this approach for both reliability and performance over the next couple days.
Does anyone see any drawbacks to this approach right off the bat?
I was wondering how i can become a contributor to the project if all this works out, or if that was even an option.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I am ery intrested in your modifications. I too am building a similar applicaiton for bulk mailing and found the sending to be somewhat slow. To help improve the send speed I created a simple round-robbin of SMTP servers to distribute the connections but I would much perfer to use a solution like the one you have implemented. I would be happy to help in any way to help test reliability and performance.
