Hi,

Is there a logic in .net to send 1000 emails per second or more ..? And Can
I use multiple servers to send mass emails at the same time using one
database. I know one server won't handle it :o(

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Sonu

The built in email support isn't going to handle this type of volume.

You can create the email text files from your application, save locally,
and then move to network shares that are email pickup folders for IIS or
other mail server. Moving is quicker than saving to a network share.

You will probably want multiple machines creating the emails as well.

There are several other things that you will need to worry about like
bounce handling, opt out handling, and how the major isp's handle your
email traffic (white-listing, black-listing, etc).
 
Thanks all for your comments.
If you really cannot reply to the questions - do not make fun of things.

I'm working on a project to send customized enmails to all clients and all I
was asking if there a better way of doing this in .net.

Thanks anyways.

I apologize if you took offense to my off the cuff attempt at humor.
Please see my original response to your post.

I know there are legitimate reasons to want to send email at high volume.

I used that approach (in original reply) to send several million emails
per day using .Net and IIS Smtp for a company with a 20+ Million
members. The limiting factor I had was how the emails were generated
(matching search preferences for members with attributes of other members).
 
Thank you Mufaka -
So this is what I'm doing now

1) Get emails from SQL table into a listbox
2) Loop through Listbox and create email message
3) Send msg

Is it correct? or is there any example I can look!
Thanks
