Whenever we send out a marketing email campaign, the emails seem to be sent out roughly every 3 minutes:
Where would I find the admin setting to increase this frequency to say every 5 seconds?
There is a scheduled task in the scheduled task app you can adjust settings on. Also in the Setting under System and Email you can set the batch value.
Before changing any of them I suggest reading the documentation as to what each setting does and what it might affect.
After months of frustration, we discovered that by default, AWS throttles port 25 on EC2 machines. You need to submit this form to remove the throttling.
The emails are sent out using a scheduled task that is executed every 1 minute by default. You can check the status of the scheduled task in the Scheduled tasks application.

Additionally there is a seperate task for new emails and queued emails

I have been tasked with creating a Xamarin Forms app feature which creates reminder notifications when certain recurring tasks must be performed. These task schedules will be maintained by a back-office system and will need to be synced with a group of Android devices.
These are the approaches I’m considering:
• Firebase Cloud Messaging to push out task notifications from the back-end in real-time (or according to the schedules if this is possible with FCM).
• Syncing the task schedules with the devices somehow and using AlarmManager or similar to trigger the notifications.
Any thoughts of which approach would work best, or is there an alternative I haven’t considered?
This can be achieved by a web service that store store the task with timestamp in some store of DB. You will have to create a service that queries the DB, Lets say every n minutes and sends push notification using FCM for all the task that are scheduled for that particular time. Obviously this approach will not be precise to milliseconds but it will work for sure no hiccups. To achieve milliseconds level of precision you will have to do a lot more work than this.

I need to set up a reminder in a channel, but this reminder should not send a notification to all the people in the channel but only to a particular subset.
I tried what shown below.
/reminder #user1 #user2 #user3 A message every 30 days
But when I verify it, slack add " after the first user, which tells me that the reminder would be sent only to the first user and not the others.
I will remind #user1 “#user2 #user3 A message” at 9AM Monday, April 1st.
Will slack send the notification only to user1 or to all them? (As mentioned).
Does Slack have the feature to send reminders to multiple users without disturbing the whole channel?
We don't want to create a separate channel.
Slack will only notify the first user you mention in the remind command.
Slack's reminder command supports only Users and Channels so you cannot create a group to notify a large group of people.
You will probably have to create a separate channel to notify them or create a bot using slack that does that if you want to create a special integration for that
If it is a recurring group of people that you usually want to notify together, you can add them to a group and notify the group.
Slack User Group Documentation
Official Source saying /remind supports groups

I know this is an big open question, but I'm more interested in the email functionality of a helpdesk.
If I were to build an online web application / help desk for my site how does the email monitoring work? How would the application retrieve the emails and create or update a ticket based on the ticket ID in the subject line?
I've never understood this and considering the attempt.
You assign some email addresses to the application, then set up email handling to route messages for that address to the application. This can be something simple like running fetchmail to pull email from the inbox on the email server and piping it to the application. Or you can update your email server to forward messages to the helpdesk server and set up an MTA like postfix to accept the messages and pipe them to the helpdesk application.
There are 100's of open source helpdesk applications, so I would recommend finding one in your language of choice and adding a feature rather than re-implementing this one feature. Handling email properly is very difficult because the specs are detailed and confusing, and you'll get a bunch of email that doesn't follow the specs.
If you just want to understand how it works, try setting up one of the open source applications and running some email through it. Turn on debugging and you can then find and read all of the code. Request Tracker (RT) is one option. rt-mailgate is the program that handles email. The basic instructions for setting up email aliases are covered in the README in step 10.

I've noticed something odd about Skype on the iPad. It keeps sending me notifications with the contents of what people have sent to me as text even after I've closed the app. For the first ten minutes it makes sense as that's how long something can keep running in the background after you close an app. These are local notifications. However beyond that it should simply not be possible. Skype has claimed for ages that their connections are end to end encrypted. For them to keep sending these notifications after ten minutes means that they are sending them via Apple's push notification service. Which means that somehow they are decrypting messages I receive on their servers and sending them to my device via Apple. This seems like either clear evidence of there being no end to end encryption or that they have a deal with Apple allowing them to keep running for more than ten minutes. If it's the latter, is there some way to do this in my own app?
Certain classes of apps are allowed to keep running in the background. This include GPS apps and VOIP apps, among others. See the docs for the UIBackgroundModes Info.plist key.
Probably, this post describes answer in more details: iOS: Keep an app running like a service

I need a total email system for my web application.
Newsletter delivery once per month.
Notifications when a user has registered with the web app or performed an action within it.
There will be approx 200,000 subscribers to the newsletter running over a period of 4 months sending 1 email per month.
There will be approx 500,000 notification emails sent over the 4 months.
Currently my web app infrastructure is based around a load balanced system which makes it difficult to send the notification emails reliably regarding reverse DNS... is there a clever way around this?
I'm looking at Campaign Monitor for the newsletter management and postmarkapp for the notification emails but pricing seems quite expensive. Is there a service which can combine both of these requirements? Or any other recommendations?
You might want to stick with separating the two just because you don't want to have your emails get mixed up when you are sending them. This is largely in terms of deliverability - if you have customers clicking on "Spam" for your bulk emails, it might affect their ability to receive your transactional emails or emails in general.
I prefer MailChimp over Campaign Monitor because of how awesome their service is and the sort of metrics you get back for newsletters.
