Wietse, I've never said anything about 5 errors, you suggested that on the cohort parameter. When delivery starts failing because of an active block, its impossible to deliver any email after that. So it might happened to have like 10k emails to the same destination (domain). As I said, if this happens to be parametrized, we could set 100, 500, 1000 errors, whatever fits the needs. > > Wietse Rafael
