Would be great to have the ability to customize a sending rate like 5 mails / second like amazon ses would need it for new customers.

I second this.

Queue Mail limits the processing time, but it would be great if we could also limit the number of emails sent per cron run.

I would like to reset the passwords for all my users. I have 9500 users and I would like to send no more than 100 emails per hour.

Thanks!

I'm using the smtp module which can send mails by cron queue. With ultimate cron you can setup a queue configuration which processes a limited number of items (mails) per x seconds

Thanks, I have installed SMTP and Ultimate Cron, but I'm not sure how to setup a queue configuration which processes a limited number of items (mails) per x seconds.

Let's suppose I want to send 1 email every 10 seconds, should I use the following form?

cron

How should I fill it?

Thanks again!
