How to configure phpList to comply with hostlantern e-mail terms of use?

You have to configure your phpList script to send less than 400 messages per hour. You have to open the phpListconfig.php file and change the parameters as shown below:

# Send a batch of 360 messages per batch period:
define("MAILQUEUE_BATCH_SIZE",360);

# batch period is set to 3600 seconds (=1 hour):
define("MAILQUEUE_BATCH_PERIOD",3600);

# Pause between messages (in seconds) to avoid overloading the server:
define('MAILQUEUE_THROTTLE',1);

The configuration above will force the phpList to send the messages in batches of 360 messages per hour.
