Just SES. Well, also SendGrid (but a decent amount of work to get that going).

I use a cron job to dump out the db and rely on my host's backup capabilities to backup that file. I've found great value in the past to go back to a prior day's db not so much because of a crash but because of, "mistakes" I've made.<…

Happen to have a rough % change from what you saw on 5.6?

Stopped using Elastic Email a very long time ago

Agreed- having multiple brands/clients sending simultaneously is bad- from a single Sendy instance. As a matter of practice, ignoring the technical/timing difficulties, I'd only run multiple clients (where the client controls their own sends, li…
-
Thanks! I've got something similar (what I've used for Mandrill and Sparkpost), but for some reason it's dropping db writes. I'm also logging all events to a flat file at the same time so I can figure out what's dropping and what isn't.
-
At this point, going to build my own code- will post it here once it's done and working.
I'm going to let EE handle soft bounce processing on their side (I won't mark it in Sendy), but will dump all the message from EE into a table so I c…

The SES credentials are set at the instance level, and the SMTP credentials are set at the app level. I always have my SMTP credentials set, and, knowing that,…

The workaround I've been using for quite some time, is to set up 2 one-liner mysql commands as aliases- one being my "send through SES" command which sets s3_key and s3_secret in the login table, and the other for sending via SMTP that clears the…

Ronan- do you know how much memory you have allocated to PHP (and how much total system memory you have)?
-
I've used EC2 in the past but have since moved to Mediatemple. I'm currently on a 16-core Xeon, 4GB RAM. I've got 3.0GB towards PHP. I can't seem to get past ~20k emails/hour (my SES limit is 90/s and I've got Sendy to cap at 10/s, and 20k/hr …

Similar question. Just got it set up, sending successfully via Mandrill, but want to make sure Bounce and Complaints are registering properly. Set up the 2 webhooks as in Fab's screenshot. Running tests on each of the webhooks in the Mandrill …
-
Thank you. Happen to know what sort of send rates you were getting on the EC2 small instance?
-
That's what I thought- and just posted on the forums over there (and searching over there as well). There was one mention of, if Sendy connects to SES via port 25 (even though it's not "sending"), the connections themselves might count- does tha…

That's great- thanks for the responses!
-
Great- thank you. Took a little bit for the site icons to cache, so I was worried for a while, then they all started showing up

Set it in the db directly and all is fine. I think I accidentally put the backslash in, and once that was done, trying to get rid of it via the GUI wasn't working. In the db, it was actually three backslashes in a row. Maybe one was escaping t…

campaigns.title is varchar(500)/latin1_swedish_ci.
-
Appreciate it as always!
-
Never see it- if the campaign is in-flight, I'll always see the progress spinner (and these recent sends have taken several hours given my SES throttle). and other way to be sending duplicates besides hitting Resume and having cron going at the …
-
I don't ever remember seeing the Resume button (let alone pressing it). But since I've got cron generally set up, won't it not appear in the first place?
-
So, and meant to say this in the original post (as I've seen it in other threads), I've got a cron job set up every 5 minutes at 0 on the hour, 5 on the hour, .... up to 45 on the hour (GoDaddy limitation of 10 jobs, and the workaround of "twice …
-
Well, that settles that- appreciate you digging that up!

Trying both TLS on 587 and SSL on 465 out of Sendy- no luck yet (GoDaddy SendMail might have stopped working for me, not receiving anything at all). But SendGrid reports/counter is showing nothing, so think I'm still falling back to PHP/SendMail…
-
Take that back, it does work over telnet (unencrypted over port 587)- it was just very fickle with spacing. But the question still stands- anyone successfully using SendGrid?
-
So I successfully connected via telnet from home (not where I'm hosting Sendy), and using http://support.sendgri…

Ben- thanks for the prompt reply- appreciate the help as always

Perfect- thank you.
