- Another note regarding groups.io 40 posts per 30min limit -
My previous big series [5] involved 79 patches, and groups.io banned
me for some time after the 40th post. On [5] Laszlo suggested to test
the following git-send-email options to see if we can work with big
series and groups.io:
--batch-size=<num>
Some email servers (e.g. smtp.163.com) limit the number
emails to be sent per session (connection) and this will
lead to a failure when sending many messages. With this
option, send-email will disconnect after sending $<num>
messages and wait for a few seconds (see --relogin-delay)
and reconnect, to work around such a limit. You may want
to use some form of credential helper to avoid having to
retype your password every time this happens. Defaults to
the sendemail.smtpBatchSize configuration variable.
--relogin-delay=<int>
Waiting $<int> seconds before reconnecting to SMTP server.
Used together with --batch-size option. Defaults to the
sendemail.smtpReloginDelay configuration variable.
So I'm sending this series using git-publish [7] after setting the
following values:
$ git config sendemail.smtpBatchSize 33
$ git config sendemail.smtpReloginDelay 1848
Replying to self after 66 in an hour to verify that I'm not banned ... :)
So I can confirm this experiment worked like charm.
I haven't tested the road-runner mode, putting laptop to sleep in the
middle, wake up in another network.
How did you come up with these exact numbers BTW?
I kept room for 7 mails per 30min, so I could keep reviewing other
patches while sending. This might be too conservative.
I noticed git-send-email only read the git-config once, when it is
started. If you modify it in another terminal while it is in the relogin
delay, it won't use the updated value until finishing to send all the
series.
30min = 1800sec, adding few more seconds to not play with fire and get
banned for few seconds.
