First real test for our new mailing list system
I’ve just done our first mailing to the English language LabourStart list — more than 50,000 addresses. It should take anywhere from 10 to 17 hours to complete. (And yes, I am looking into ways to speed that up.) This is the first real test to see how well our new server (DirectNIC in the USA) and software (PHPlist) stand up under pressure. There’s no real way to know if everyone receives a mailing, but one way to test is to watch our daily stats for all campaigns, here. If there’s no bump today, we have a problem.
