mailing problems

[alexks]

Hello,
I have a script that takes e-mails from a database and sends a file. However, this script is for windows, and I can send only 200 e-mails every hour, that is web housting company's restriction. I want to know how can I write it for linux so that I could load that program on linux command line, but not on a browser. Also, I wondered how can I send a lot of e-mailes without overloading the server.

Thank you in advance.

your posting is really vague, but i can suggest:

1) if your hosting company limits the number of mails you can send, find a different one!

2) you might try reading the source code for phplist:

3) if you are sending spam email, you can dry up and DIE.
