Mass email 100 limit?

Is their a limit on how many Mass emails can be sent.

I tried to send 161.

I got a list of the first 100 sent. It then asked me to press 'Next'. The next page said 'no users found' {or something like that}.

Did the last 61 get the email?

Is there a way to check the emails that were sent?

It's not a good idea to try to mass mail users using XOOPS. For mass mailings over 50 users, you would be better off to use a tool like http://www.phplist.com/ that can send the mails in batches.

Many hosting providers have measures in place to block scripts that send out more than 100 emails at a time. Most ISPs check for such pattern and could blacklist your domain if your not careful.
Insanity can be defined as "doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."

Stupidity is not a crime. Therefore, you are free to go.

SPAM attack?

SPAM attack?

After my last mailing, I received 91 undeliverable messages back.

The messages purportedly came from my site, but from non-existent user names.

Does this mean someone broke into my account and used my email privs?

Ah, so the reason for the limit of 100 emails is to prevent the site from getting blocked.

line 7 after the disclaimer $limit = 100,
