Subject: b4 should batch email
Date: Sun, 12 Feb 2023 20:22:13 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87sffadzbu.fsf@tromey.com> (raw)

My mail provider doesn't like when I send too many messages in one
session, so I got the appended error message.

"git send-email" doesn't have this problem, because I do:

[sendemail]
...
	smtpBatchSize = 10

Perhaps b4 could use this same mechanism.  FWIW it was also a bit weird
to me that I had to set b4.send-series-to, when I already have
sendemail.to configured.

I'm using:

prentzel. b4 --version
0.12.0

thanks,
Tom
