Is there a way with OpenEMM to send emails as separate threads? In other words, I send Email A. About 15 minutes later, I send Email B. Is there a way to have both sending at the same time? I did this and Email B took almost 4 hours to start sending and seemed to wait until the majority of Email A had been sent.

To my understanding it is not possible.

Once a mailing is beeing send, the mails are created and placed into the sendmail queue (/home/openemm/var/spool/queue).
Sendmail will send process the mails from the queue.

Creating and sending a new mailing will place those new emails also into the sendmail queue.

If the sendmail queue however is filled with emails from the previous mailing, the new mailings-emails are only send once sendmail has reached them in the queue.

I agree with Fatalin. Once the emails are in the queue the send mail processes them one by one and no algorithm says that these mails can be processes simultaneously, therefore its not possible to send the emails as separate threads. If there is some other way to do it ill be interested as well.

We will publish a multi-queue backend in a future version of OpenEMM.
