RE: [PHP-DB] Re: Mail problem

I also have such a script, but i use perl, but there are no difference.. use a for or while loop and put a sleep() function or another function in the loop.. so the server has more time to process the mail, and there will be no timeout anymore Mark SNijders -----Original Message----- From: Mak [mailto:mak@a-cro.net] Sent: woensdag 2 oktober 2002 16:48 To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] Re: Mail problem Beware though...if there are too many addresses in the db, you may encounter timeouts, or your browser may crash (very likely). Increase the timeout before you do such a mass-mail job. Also, my comment: If you do not want your receivers to find out who else you sent the mail to, don't use the CC method. Just: for(until max. users reached){ send out new mail to current user } Yours sincerely, Mak "Jj Harrison\" <webmaster@tececo.com> wrote in message news:20020811073622.74696.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > > > maybe use a for loop and mail command. > > should work > > Or put all the addresses in a CC/BCC field maybe sending every 100 emails to > prevent a mail overload/blockage due to to many recipients etc. > > Hint: look here: > http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.php and you > can find a way to append more to an existing variable.
