This ensures not too many mails to go a single provider in a given time frame.&nbsp;If you have many subscribers on the same domain (e.g. hotmail.com) it may delay your campaign a little, as recipient mail servers often have restrictions on how many messages they can receive in a given time frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a few months of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phplist.com\/blog\/knowledgebase\/positive-activity-and-account-settings\/\">responsible usage<\/a> of your phpList account, the sizes of the batches of messages used by your account automatically increases, which means your campaigns will be delivered more quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pro Marketer Accounts (VPS)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For VPS accounts, no batch processing is used; campaigns are sent as fast as the server is capable, within the limits set by domain throttles in order to ensure maximum deliverability.
