Sending Bulk Emails.

Are you sure that the mail provider allows sending 200 messages all at once like that? There is a good whoever host that mail server (comcast?) wont allow that.

I created that email from my other server which is from hostgator. In my local machine it works but not on production

@pings12 heres your issue:

There is a limit to emails that you can send out each day. This is to control potential spammers and prevent abuse while maintaining server balance and integrity of the email host. If there is no HostGator email sending limits then you’d receive hundreds of messages each day and that’s just overwhelming. Each email hosting site has different rules and sending limits. Once you reach the number of HostGator email sending limits you won’t be able to send more emails in that day. You can continue sending emails the next hour/day.

Limitations : 500 emails per hour

Frequency : 115 emails / 15 minutes

Comments : Use third party SMTP for list over 5000 emails

I doubt if its the email limit. Because it is working on my local machine. If the email limit, then the error should appear on my local machine.

@pings12 the internet is not always reliable, i.e. if for some reason, your local machine or server loses network connection, jobs will fail and end up in failed_jobs table.

My approach would be to retry these failed jobs before eventually removing them. This will also deal with any email limits that are imposed by the provider.

I would add an expiry timestamp into each job, and use it to remove them from failed_jobs instead of retrying, e.g. try to send an email for up to 1 week then give up. These removals will also be logged somewhere so that we know which mails were not sent.

Laravel has built in ways to retry jobs, but you can certainly customize like the way I described above. https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/queues#dealing-with-failed-jobs
