Email queue

OTF comes with an email queue that can send email at a throttled rate. The email queue stores data in the tbl_emailqueue
table.
To queue an email, you will use the Zend_Mail object.
$eq = new Ot_Model_DbTable_EmailQueue();
$mail = new Zend_Mail();
$mail->addTo($to);
$mail->setFrom($from);
$mail->setSubject($subject);
$mail->setBodyText($body);
$eData = array(
'zendMailObject' => $mail,
'attributeName' => 'someAttributeName',
'attributeId' => $someAttributeId,
);
$eq->queueEmail($eData);
attributeName
can be set to anything. Sometimes, you may want to associate a queued email with something else, like an account. In that case, attributeName
would be accountId
and attributeId
would be the numeric account ID for the user. These can be any values, so it is up to you.
The cronjob that processes the Email Queue runs every minute and processes 20 emails at a time.
