Hi,  
  
  
  
after much umming and ahhing we’ve decided to go down the Mandrill route for our emails.  
  
  
  
Can anyone give me some advice on what settings people are using in Mautic for their Mandrill setup?  
  
  
  
Everything works, in-regards to sending emails, i just want some advice on what people are using for the following settings:

- How should email be handled?  
  
  
- Path to the email queue directory  
  
  
- Message limit for queue processing  
  
  
- Time limit for queue processing  
  
  
- Recovery timeout for resending failed messages  
  
  
- Clear timeout for deleted failed messages  
  
  
  
  
  
On an upgraded account in Mandrill, which we have, we can send 2500 emails per hour, will Mautic be able to do this?
