Mailing Subscriptions
Hi, I have one client that needs to send mailing to it's subscribers, but he has about 10.000.
He is in one of my cPanel servers.
I know mailchimp and phplist services, but I would like to know how I could offer them this mailing service without the use of external services.
I got one VPS with 6 IPs with the main intention of sending emails to subscribers, but I think it's not going to be so easy.
What are your experiences ?
What can you suggest ?

You can self-host PHPList. It works well.
cPanel has Mailman built-in ;-)
Well, you can't just send 10k emails today that simply, you get blacklistes before getting 1.000 emails delivered
My client's list is based in mailman, I do manage it for them
But a problem to send emails now, SPAM is causing so many issues with massive subscription delivering !
I have never gotten blacklisted... then again I only send 100 mails at once, sometimes 4-6 times a day and all recipients (every single one) want to receive my email.
So how does you not getting blacklisted when sending 100 mails max have anything to do with a mailing list of 10k emails daily?
He said 1000 and I have had no problem sending up to 700 in a few hours 10,000 emails per day are only one every 8.6 seconds..
Let me explain. I have two clients, every one have 10.000 (10k) subscribers, well one of them almost 7.000 (7k) and growing fast, and the other one 10.000 (10k). Both are subscribers, one is in the cPanel mailman's account and the other one has it in one forum.
They both want to send one monthly bulletin.
One don't get blacklisted if configure Exim system to send 100 emails per hour, for example, but I want to build something more robust. So I can get more cusotomers of this kind.
I was thinking about to install a phplist and try to configure it using external VPS as a smart host to deliver emails, that external VPS has 6 IPs, a good idea would be to use any script to balance IPs for it.
This was the idea .....
When I sais "1.000" I was saying as an example.
Set exim to read from /etc/mailips, make a bash script to rotate the IP in the file and set it on a cron. Done
The syntax is like this:
domain.com: ip.add.ress
May need to "service exim reload" on rotate. Make sure PTR matches HELO set in /etc/mailhelo.

@Jar this fits more on what I'm trying to do, I'll take a look, thanks
