Sophos Email Appliance Messages Throttling

Question

Hi, is there a way to Throttle emails on email appliance? 
 for example I'am sending a bulk messages for advertising with approximately 20k email messages. 
 Can I set a policy/setting that queues the mail messages and send it by batch? or lets say 500 messages per hour? 
 
 Thanks!

Hi Tech, 
 
 There is no setting per-se to throttle message per hour.. Sending bulk mail through the appliance is not really recommended.. However if you really wish to do so, you could configure a send connector to throttle the connections for that specific IP/user. 
 something like this should help

 again tho, I do not recommend it (you can apply to some bulk email whitelists) as a bulk mailer.. but in general if you're an unknown sender and people complain you have a very good chance of getting yourself listed..
