I get an error every time I try to get the emails of followers - and it seems that I am being blocked by Instagram - is there not a way to perhaps slow down the crawl or do it in batches to get around this error?

that would be great, since FB / IG is blocking repeating actions in time manner

See #197.

I will include this features in the next release.

Has this been fixed yet? I have been getting this error for anything over 3-4k followers
