[PHP] Newsletter on the way..stuck in the moment!
Hi!
Well, I want to send an email to about 300 people. The
problem is that if I use this method people can see
all the email address of the people whoever it is sent
to.
?php
$connect = mysql_connect();
$query = "select email from news";
$execute = mysql_db_query("uaegraduate", $query);
while($r = mysql_fetch_array($execute))
{
$email = $r['email'];
$add .= $email . ",";
}
$headers = "From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED][EMAIL PROTECTED]\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$subject = "hey";
$to = "$add";
$mailmessage = "hey this is the message";
$mailsomeone = mail($to, $subject, $mailmessage,
$headers);
if($mailsomeone)
{
echo "Success";
}
?
If I use the above method, all the email address will
apear in the to: like this:-
To:[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and goes on for 300 entries.
Is there any way I can stop this from happening yet
the mails reaching their destination.
Thank You
Cheers!~

300 recipients is allot. I would not use a script for so many. Why don't you use a program that was designed to send many emails such as Group Mail : http://www.sellshareware.com/CustomView.asp?PrID=34604AfID=2407PageID=1 I use it to send mail to tens of thousands of recipients and it's great. Sincerely berber Visit http://www.weberdev.com Today!!! To see where PHP might take you tomorrow. -Original Message- From: Steve Werby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 06, 2001 8:41 PM To: Dhaval Desai; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Newsletter on the way..stuck in the moment!
