    Hi

    User-rate limit exceeded.

    That means you sent too many emails in a short period of time. Make sure you don’t send emails in an endless loop.
    Or make sure that you are blocking a usual page visit from sending an email to you.

    More details on rate limits:
    https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/quota

    Basically, sending 3 emails per second is already out of limits.

    Hi, would be the correct number of emails to input on the per hour textbox? Because 3600 seems to be bringing issues despite activating the cron job option using GMAIL.
