Methods

SendMessageWithQueue(TelegramBot, ChatId, String, Boolean, Boolean, Int32, ReplyMarkupBase)

Sends a text message with a queue. Using this method you should never hit 429-Errors (Too many requests). If you do, please open a GitHub issue. Note that the parameters disableWebPagePreview and disableNotification will be overridden by the last merged message, if you enable message merging. If you want to use this method to send messages, you need to call the StartQueue(TelegramBot, ParseMode, Boolean) method to start it.
