I use a while loop and the mail function to send email to all subscribers of
a site. This works fine for 50 users but I know there can be some problems
when you do it like this for 1000 users.
Eg. Limit of page execution is exceeded and even server crashes because each
time a mail is send a socket is opened and closed again.
Now I have found some functions (fsock_open of an SMTP service) and some
pear classes
Unfortunately I have a windows server hosting that site.
Anyone knows how to do mass email on a windows server?
Thx in advance
