Dear David,
You're going to have 2 problems:
(1) You're going to overload the outgoing mail server. I've done it. Now i use a newsletter-type mailing list.
(2) Invalid e-mail addresses will be returned to your hosting provider, not to the "From: ..."address. I'm looking for an answer to this now.
Here's the code I use for 1 e-mail.
<?php
set_time_limit(300);
... connect, select db, etc. ...
$message="Dear consumer,\n
...\n
Thanks!\n
SBW Research

";
mail("$e_mail",
"Thanks!",
"$message",
"From:SBW Research <mail@sbwresearch.com>\n");
@mysql_close($connection);
header ("location:add_5.htm");
flush();
exit;
?>
