email method limitations

Has anyone figured out a creative way to manage single email methods given the 10 message governor limit?  For example, If I have an email method set-up to send out a message upon an opportunity closing, then we can't update more than 10 opportunities at a time (single trigger execution) without hitting this limit.

 

Can't use built-in workflow/email alerts because the data for the email message is coming from more than 1 object and we need to have control over the to:, cc: fields.

 

Looking for any creative ideas here.

You can user @future method call for sending emails. So it will increase the limit from 10 to 100.

 

You can have 10 @future calls in a single context and in each @future call you can send 10 emails. So in total you can update 100 opportunities.

Thanks.  That sort of solved it for now.  I just chunk it in 10 message increments and send to the @future class.

but if each email is unique with a different recipient. Does that mean I can only send 10 emails?

 

so if i need to send 200, the only option is to have the user click a button 20 times?
