Send subscription via new Thread to stop slow posts?

edited June 2011 in Feedback
I use google for my SMTP server and they seem to have an artificial "slow down" built in -- probably to prevent spamming. However, this makes it so if I have lots of people subscribed, it takes a REALLY long time to complete the post.

Could you change the logic so that when the even triggers to send email on a new post that it sends that email from a new PHP thread? That way the user will immediately be returned to the page while PHP happily sends the email in a background thread somewhere.

  • This is true. I experience it also in my forums. A lot of errors, I have to turn this plugin off to prevent that long and slow posting times.

    Can you post a feature request on gitHub please?
