        3. email.sendEmailSchedule:
          • Description: Used to set the time interval for sending emails. The property value follows the format for the Quartz cron trigger. IMPORTANT: in a clustered environment (i.e. TEST and PROD), this property should be different for every server in the cluster: we want to avoid multiple quartz jobs running against the same email data at the same time and sending duplicate emails. In fact we recommend effectively disabling the quartz job on all but one of the servers in a given cluster by specifying a schedule that will never be triggered (e.g. a data in the year 2099).
          • Usage: Required when using csf-email in a cluster. If not specified, the csf-email default schedule will be used (every 10 minutes starting at the top of the hour).
          • Example: email.sendEmailSchedule=0 0/20 0-22 * * ?
              In this example, the emails will be send every 20 minutes, at 0, 20, and 40 minutes past the hour.
          • Dependencies: none.
          • Recommended Settings In Clustered Environment (TEST/PROD):
            one server in cluster (e.g. sea-app-5 in TEST): email.sendEmailSchedule=0 0/10 0-22 * * ?
            other server(s) in cluster (e.g. sea-app-6 in TEST): email.sendEmailSchedule=0 * * * * ? 2099
        4. email.deleteEmailSchedule:
          • Description: Used to set the time interval for deleting emails that have been sent. The property value follows the format for the Quartz cron trigger. IMPORTANT: in a clustered environment (i.e. TEST and PROD), this property should be different for every server in the cluster: we want to avoid multiple quartz jobs running against the same email data at the same time. In fact we recommend effectively disabling the quartz job on all but one of the servers in a given cluster by specifying a schedule that will never be triggered (e.g. a data in the year 2099).
          • Usage: Required when using csf-email in a cluster. If not specified, the csf-email default schedule will be used (nightly at 10.30pm).
          • Example: email.deleteEmailSchedule=0 45 23 * * ?
              In this example, the emails will be deleted every night at 11.45pm.
          • Dependencies: none.
          • Recommended Settings In Clustered Environment (TEST/PROD):
            one server in cluster (e.g. sea-app-5 in TEST): email.deleteEmailSchedule=0 30 22 * * ?
            other server(s) in cluster (e.g. sea-app-6 in TEST): email.deleteEmailSchedule=0 * * * * ? 2099
