@captainswallow,
What you are missing is the answer to this question in the FAQs:

Thanks.
Is there a way to stop this behaviour – other than setting the number of “recipients per email” to a larger number (or zero)?
@captainswallow,
Change the sender perhaps.
Not a terribly practical solution, if it’s still sending 30 emails to one address. If it’s a non-existent address, it will just create 30 “bounces” on the server (not to mention anyone replying to a posted digest will not get an answer).
It’s an odd behaviour.
@captainswallow,
Odd? It’s not odd at all, it exactly what you’d expect when you send an email to a group of recipients and adding those email addresses as BCC recipients. Which email would you propose gets used in the TO address so that the email actually sends?
And why is it so impractical for you to change the setting?
One more question, if I may…if I set the “recipients per email” to ONE, will that cause an equal amount of emails to be sent to the admin/sending account, or is it then using the TO field for each/single email?
I realize this will take longer to process, but that’s not an issue.
@captainswallow,
If you set the “recipients per email” to ONE then individual emails are generated to each of your subscribers and it is their address that goes in the TO: field. Admins will only get an email if there personal settings (at Subscribe2-> Your Subscriptions) are set so as to have an active subscription.
So, will setting that to one give you the same number of admin emails? No, it won’t it’ll reduce the number of emails to either 0 or 1.
Cheers…that about covers it then.
