So this week we had an issue where a customer made a mistake in her e-mail-address. She typed .col instead of .com. A mistake that likely will happen again in the future.
The issue is that this caused the notification settings (the cron job) to go bonkers. It send the reminder mail over 550 times to this faulty address and kept trying. This is bad for our mail server, this is bad for our other customers because the cron job tilted and did not sent out other notifications.
Is this something we or you can configure in a different way? It seems like it should be build in so that it stops trying after several failed attempts.
Thank you for purchasing our product, and for reaching out to us.
There is nothing we can do about it at the moment but I'll kindly ask you to add it as a feature suggestion on this page.
Features are pushed up on our "to-do" list when there are a lot of customers requesting those features, so having your vote as a customer can be beneficial to this feature being developed sooner.
If you have any more questions please feel free to open another ticket.
Thanks for your quick reply. I have added it as a feature suggestion.
Though this does not seem like a feature suggest, but more like a flaw in the plugin that should be solved. This will never get enough votes otherwise but it is something that could cause issues for everyone without them really realizing.
It even keeps sending out reminders after the appointment took place. So it would go on forever?

Any update on this?
This happened again a few days ago and all mails went crazy.
I changed the faulty e-mail address but right now it is not sending out for new bookings at all.
We still have two cronjobs running.
Tihs one every 5 min: wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=wpamelia_api&call=/notifications/scheduled/send
This one every 15 min: wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=wpamelia_api&call=/notifications/undelivered/send
This last one does not seem to be working anymore (runs very long and then times out). The first one says 'no data'.
Any suggestions?
