This may be due to a limit your host has placed on the server to prevent people from spamming.
Sorry dude but you should not even really be using the mass mail feature. If one of your site members reports you for spamming you'll get your server blacklisted.

Contact your host to see if there are any limits imposed on the number of mails you can send within a specified time frame.

Since you are on 2.02.02, you could try using "Edit Groups" (which is NSN Groups) and in there, there is a mass mail feature.

before using nsn groups, i wud like to please explain in brief what nsn groups really is ! what r its features, is it integrated with the forum or not ??

Also, i have not yet done anything with nsn groups, still it shows a group "Moderators", is it the forum group or a separate one ! also, if i assign someone a moderator group in nsn groups, then he wud have access to what all sections !

Please clarify !

thnx

Ah, never mind, I thought there was a way to mass mail to all registered users. Sorry about that!

You could try the nuke Newsletter that also comes with it, but unfortunately, with the number of user you have, it will probably time out.

Sorry, don't have an answer for you on the Forum mailer. I have to get to work...

NSN Groups supports the ability to control access to messages, blocks, modules, etc. by group. It uses the same groups as the Forums module, but expands group functionality to many other parts of Nuke. Some addons, like montego's HTML Newsletter, also take advantage of NSN Groups, allowing you to send the newsletter to the members of a group. NSN Group Downloads allows access to download categories by group, in addition to many other improvements over the standard downloads module.

NSN Groups also allows public groups - groups that anyone can join by requesting. It can be integrated with NSN PayPal (a commercial script) to allow people to join groups (i.e. to gain access to certain features) by sending PayPal payments.

Well, if i make a group of moderators, then wud they be allowed only to moderate the forums or everything like blocks, messages, downloads, modules etc????

Only Nuke administrators / authors can maintain blocks, messages, downloads, etc. Moderators are a different function altogether.
