Hi all, could you please help me, because sending emails is taking too long. I’m sending to a 1000 contacts in a batches of 100 and Mautic stays on the page where it says: “Sending is in progress. Leaving this page will stop the process but may cause contacts to receive duplicate emails when restarted.” 15 minutes and the progress bar is still empty. I see that emails are sending, but it takes too much time, why is this? Does this depend on some of the Cron Jobs timing? Thanks in advance! ---

Maybe you should consider to spool mails rather that sending it immediately. ---

No problem. Don’t forgot to setup cron job to sent out spooled emails 😉 ---
