    hi

    i tried to send messages to my registered memebers,using mailler that is included in my site's script .it uses php mail .but,my host limited the number of email to 500 per hour.i need more ,because i can only send to all users at once . now,i tried to use the smtp settings from gmail,but that haven't work.
    this are the settings i used

    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS or SSL: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)

    Port for TLS/STARTTLS: 587
    Port for SSL: 465
    Account Name: your full email address (including @gmail.com or @your_domain.com)
    Email Address: your email address (username@gmail.com or )
    Password: your Gmail password

    what is the problem ?

    thank you

    GMail won't be of use to you then, as there is a sending limit of 200/per day through Gmail SMTP servers, 500/day via web interface, as far as i know.

    You need a script that staggers (has a delay between) the emails throughout the day

    that is a problem,because any script will send them at once
