RE: [PHP-DB] newsletter optimization help needed

You could form them into an array and then use implode with whatever delimiter sendmail uses (unless you changed it I believe it is just a comma). To test it, try limiting your select statement to the first 50 or so, then echo everything into a test output page. Then try with a defined limit of 1 or 2 to email it to a few test email accounts (hotmail or whatever) and see if it all works. I stress this as I may have accidently at one time in the past tried a test similar to yours with live data. Needless to say our exchange admin was a bit unhappy.

That makes sense :-) One question, my brain is kind of dead today (Some would say always :-) But how would I get $emailadd to display all the addresses in the bcc bit? I know you have to add the addresses, seperate them with a , etc ..... but for the life of me I can't think straight right now :-( Thanks Chris --- while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result)) { $emailadd = $row["EMail"]; $emailname = $row["emailname"]; $emailphone = $row["emailphone"]; $emailaddress = $row["emailaddress"]; }; > You could change the TO: to something generic like "Email List > Subscriber" then add everyone to the BCC field and then generate 1 > email with 9000 people in the BCC field.
