getting around 30sec timeout

Hello,

1 of my clients is with godaddy and wont leave lol,

the problem is i have an email script so they can send out mass emails, all was ok but 12 months on and they have a lot of subscribers so now the script times out befor reaching the end,

I have tried a php.ini addition but dosent get picked up on the godaddy servers,

is thetre a way i can have the script run for x amount of seconds and then re run it again starting from where it left so to stop it timing out,

sorry if it dont make sence, let me know if you need more info

@MindzaiJul 15.2009 — Have a look at PEAR's Mail_Queue class - it's designed for just this sort of situation and works perfectly. I use it send a couple of hundred emails per hour via a cron job until the subscriber's list is finished.
