title: How to Setup Wordpress with Amazon SES using Mail Queue Throttling?
body: <p>I am trying to upgrade a Wordpress blog to use Amazon SES (Simple Email Service) with the Subscribe2 email notification plugin (see links below).  Currently I have the email working with the SES service, but I am running into rate limiting issues due to the fact that I have more than 1000+ subscribers.  I know that the SES service limits BCC emails to 50 recipients so in the Subscribe2 plugin I have truncated the BCC limit to 50 recipients per batch.  However since I am still at the initial sending limits I can only send 1 message (up to 50 recipients a piece) per second, and since the Subscribe2 plugin doesn't have any sort of throttling mechanism I'm looking for the paid Wordpress Mail Queue plugin to slowly send off the emails over a period of time, but I'm concerned that the SES plugin and the Mail Queue plugin will conflict each other because I believe they both override the same wp_mail() function (you can only override this once).  I may be mistaken, but does anyone have any insight into this?</p>
