Dear list recipients,I
have the direct mail extension set up and running. Sending the mails
works perfect as long as I manually invoke the mailer engine. But now I
want to use the mailer cron task. Since I have a recipient-list of over
1600 subscribers and don't want to choke the receiving server (all
subscribers are members of a school, so they are all on the same mail
server) it is necessary to send the mails per 45 mails per 30 minutes.The things I don't understand from the extension manual is where to put the following line:
*/5 * * * * /home/....../public_html/typo3conf/ext/direct_mail/mod/dmailerd.phpcron> /dev/null
It seems as if the writer of the manual assumes you to know but I
don't. And also I can't find this information anywhere! On every
tutorial or message board I checked nobody states where to insert the
above line.Any help is greatly appreciated! Bram de Leeuw.
