This was just discussed last week.  Here's how:
$connection = mysql_connect("host","user","pass");
$db = mysql_select_db("db_name", $connection);
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table_name ORDER BY email ASC");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)) {
        $email = $row["email"];
        $name = $row["name"];
        // code to send email (use the mail() function)
}

Good luck,
