Description

We need to send a thank you email (non-tax receipt) to a bunch of donors, I think around 700 in total. Is there a limit on how many people we can email via the Mailing function in Civi?

I was thinking of creating a group and then creating an email template and then emailing the group this email. Do you think this would work?

We can discuss this in our Civi check this afternoon too :-)

Hi Eileen,

I've been chatting to Adam about this issue and he mentioned if we schedule the mailing the limit might not be an issue.

I've created a test mailing, but it only had 4 contacts in it so I can't if it would work. Here's the draft:

https://$site/civicrm/a/#/mailing/382

Do you know if we schedule the mailings we could email more than 50?

Caitlin C is happy to help us out for the above donors, but we've also just realised this is going to be an ongoing issue and we'd love MGF and foundations be able to do this ourselves via Civi is possible.

Any thoughts or idea on this?

Thanks,

@eileenmcmaughton can you confirm if there is a limit on the number of contacts we can mail for a scheduled mailing please? I've figured out how to create a template email, but am not sure if the limit is set at 50. If the limit can be changed that would be great.

Thanks,
