Hi people, I am currently maintaining a website where at times I may need to send around 10,000+ emails at a time.
I just want to ask on what methods you may consider Django best practices e.g. in efficiency when sending mail to a list of this size? I am currently handling this as a celery task and sending the emails through Mandrill <https://mandrillapp.com> transactional email service Currently, this is how I am handling it: from django.core.mail import EmailMultiAlternatives, get_connection from models import Subscriber connection = get_connection() recipients = [i.email for i in Subscriber.objects.all()] for sub in subscribers: msg = EmailMultiAlternatives(title, content, sender, [sub]) msg.attach_alternative(content, "text/html") recipient_list.append(msg) connection.send_messages(recipients) Is it better to split the list into smaller chinks to reduce the size of the requests or which other implementation methods can I consider?
