Problem:
Client gets blacklisted every time they do a mail merge and send out more than x amount of emails at time.
Solution:
Creating a new throttling policy for a single user:
- New-ThrottlingPolicy -Name LimitMessagesSent -RecipientRateLimit 30 -MessageRateLimit 1
- LimitMessagesSent – limits the number of recipients that a user can send in 24 hours
- MessageRateLimit – the total amount of emails sent out per minute
Creating a new throttling policy for the entire organization:
- New-ThrottlingPolicy -Name LimitMessagesSent -RecipientRateLimit 30 -MessageRateLimit 1 -ThrottlingPolicyScope Organization
- LimitMessagesSent – limits the number of recipients that a user can send in 24 hours
- MessageRateLimit – the total amount of emails sent out per minute
Review throttling policies in place:
- Get-ThrottlingPolicy -Identity PolicyName | Format-List
Deleting throttling policy:
- Get–ThrottlingPolicy PolicyName | Remove–ThrottlingPolicy
