If you're using "git send-email" then specify --confirm=always and either manually send a mail every few seconds or use an expect script like
#!/bin/bash EXPECT_SCRIPT= function cleanup() { if [ "$EXPECT_SCRIPT" != "" ]; then rm $EXPECT_SCRIPT fi } trap cleanup EXIT
EXPECT_SCRIPT=`mktemp` cat > $EXPECT_SCRIPT <<EOF spawn sh ./SEND expect { "Send this email" { sleep 10; exp_send y\\r; exp_continue } } EOF
expect -f $EXPECT_SCRIPT exit $?
This will work if your provider limits the rate mails are sent rather than the total amount.
