Do you mean (a) 50 messages in one SMTP connection? Or (b) 50 recipients in
one message? Or (c) 50 messages in a given time period?
All of them are done automatically. Exim retries temporarily rejected
recipients at regular intervals until everything is delivered.
If (a) is the problem, and the messages are identical, then make sure your
PHP script queues only one message, with 258 recipients. Make them BCC
recipients, though.
If (b) is the problem, then have your script generate a few messages with
50 recipients each.
If (c) is the problem, then think about adjusting your exim retry times
accordingly.
