Question what happens to emails that exceed limits?

[larryk]

say a user has 100 as the hourly limit.

then at 9:10am, that user sends out 500 emails.
obviously, 400 would be rejected (as per the stats)

WHAT ACTUALLY happens to those other 400 emails?
does the user know anything, get notifications?

thanks


PS. i just went live with onyx from 11.5... so learning of the new features

The user should get a response like
"554 5.7.0 Your message could not be sent. The limit on the number of allowed outgoing messages was exceeded. Try again later."
The user does not get that information if the sender is a script on the server.

thanks! is there a way to ONLY tell the user 1 time?

in the above example, the user would get 400 responses?
ekk!
