Can anybody recommend way of staggering transmission of a merge?

We are a small community group, who regularly cascade out emails to our
database members.Our webhosts arew giving us grief because we are using
'excessive' bandwidth, and we are apparently being blacklisted by ISPs! We
will address this in part by using links and consolidating information into a
regular newsletter. However, we also carry out surveys, which includes
reminders etc. Our webhost person has recommended sending these out over a
period of time, rather thanh in one 'lump'. Outlook only allows one to delay,
not to stagger. Is there a getaround, or can anyone recommend any softeware
that will do the job, cheaply.

I know a similar group, and what they do is create distribution groups
for all recipients starting with 'A', 'B', 'C', etc, then send out a
batch every day for the 'A', 'B', 'C' group...

Try our email scheduler (http://www.repeatmail.com) which will allow you to
send multiple individual emails, html or plain text, with attachments,
either as a one-off or regularly at a specified time and interval. The
recipients list can be drawn from your Outlook Contacts, a plain text
file,database or spreadsheet. It also allows you to specify the interval
between each send so as to avoid triggering any spam limits on your account.
Outlook is not needed to send. Your machine needs to be switched on, but you
don't even have to be logged in. Works with Win 98/XP/2003/Vista
