I took a more conservative approach by sending only one email per browser page reload. Since the refresh tag waits one second after the page has loaded (and considering the request and response time lag over the internet) the actual number of emails sent out were probably more like 30-50 per hour. But I wasn't in a hurry, I just wanted something I could observe while it was running. A simple click on the browser tab told me immediately how much of the db had been processed, how much was remaining, and which record had just been processed ... so I had live feedback in my browser the whole time. Nice! :) Each time a new request was sent my WebDNA code did a search for all records not previously marked as sent. By using "max=1" I was able to send only one email per request, and I marked that record "sent" so it could never be re-sent accidentally.
