def send( self ): c = Context({ "content": self.introductory_text, "user":None, "request":None, "updates": [] })#Section.updates.all()[:20] }) t = loader.get_template('emailer/html/updates.html') subject = self.subject recipients = [] if self.to_all_principal_contacts: self.add_principal_contacts() if self.to_all_subscribers: self.add_subscribers() for i in self.recipients.all(): recipients.append( i.email ) self.save() html = t.render(c) for i in recipients: send_html_email( subject, html, "emailataddress.com", i, image_root=settings.PROJECT_DIR ) from datetime import datetime self.sent_on = datetime.now() self.sent = True self.save()
What I want to do is break recipients[] into chunks of say 100 and then send_html_email on each email address within each chunk for all chunks BUT I want to preserve the self.sent = True self.save() to be done after all chunks have been sent. I think it may also need some method of timebreak between each chunk being processed. This is come about because the server/host seems to have a problem with sending 1500 emails in one go. The above sends to small numbers but not all in one go. Thanks for helping -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
