PHP - Can You Send Mail() For Bulk Email?
Hello,
I have some troubles to send mass email. I am using mail() function and the script is timed out. also there is a restriction in which you allowed to send 20 mails per minute. so I use sleep(5) to delay 5 seconds between every mail, but the script is exceeded timeout. Adding this: set_time_limit(0); will still not work. maybe can I set a background thread? if so please tell me how to. Also, if there is a built in script that can help me with that, I would like to hear about it. Thanks =] Similar Tutorialsim new to php <?php $to="myemail@yahoo.com"; $subject="Testing Purposes"; $message="This is my message"; $headers="From: samle@yahoo.com"; mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); ?> this one goes to the bulk!!! what i want i to send i to inbox any ide thanks in advance Hello Im making html mail for my project.

It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.</p> </body> </html> '; $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' .

Hi guys, I have a problem with the $header variable. I am trying to extract the value from the $name method and included with the $email method. <?php session_start(); define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); define('DB_USER', 'myusername'); define('DB_PASSWORD', 'mypass'); define('DB_DATABASE', 'mydbname'); $errmsg_arr = array(); $errflag = false; $link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD); if(!$link) { die('Failed to connect to server: ' . mysql_error()); } $db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE); if(!$db) { die("Unable to select database"); } function clean($var){ return mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($var)); } $name = clean($_GET['name']); $email = clean($_GET['email']); $type = clean($_GET['type']); $comments = clean($_GET['comments']); if($name == ''){ $errmsg_arr[] = 'name are missing.'; $errflag = true; } elseif($email == ''){ $errmsg_arr[] = 'email are missing.'; $errflag = true; } if($errflag) { $_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] = $errmsg_arr; echo implode('<br />',$errmsg_arr); } else { $insert = array(); if(isset($_GET['name'])) { $insert[] = 'name = \'' . clean($_GET['name']) .'\''; } if(isset($_GET['email'])) { $insert[] = 'email = \'' . clean($_GET['email']) .

"\r\n"; My problem is I can see in my email that the sender name has been included with (unknown sender) while the email address are display as empty address. I am really not sure why I have got the blank sender name and with the blank sender address. Do you know what the main problem is and what I need to change it with? Any advice would be much appreciate. Thanks, Mark When I test my php, all of the errors work, but when I actually want to send an email the form doesnt go through and I get the error message 'Please enter a valid e-mail address'? I think I may have something wrong in my mail function. Code: [Select] <?php if (empty($_POST['author'])) { $errors[] = 'Please enter a name'; } if (empty($_POST['subject'])) { $errors[] = 'Please enter a subject'; } if (empty($_POST['text'])) { $errors[] = 'Please enter your comments.'; } if (empty($_POST['email'])) { $errors[] = 'Please enter an e-mail'; } else if (!preg_match("^[_a-z0-9-]+(.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(.[a-z0-9-]+)*(.[a-z]{2,3})$ ^", $_POST['email'])) { $errors[] = 'Please enter a valid e-mail address'; } if (count($errors) == 0) { // Process form mail("solysol05@gmail.com","Subject: subject", text,"From: author <email>"); echo "Thank you for using our mail form.<br/>"; echo "Your email has been sent."; } else { echo $errors[0]; } ?> Code: [Select] <?php $firstname = $_POST['firstname']; $lastname = $_POST['lastname']; $email = $_POST['email']; $dropdown = $_POST['dropdown']; $formcontent=" From: $firstname \n Surname: $lastname \n Email: $email \n Dropdown: $dropdown"; $recipient = "martin@sittingspiritually.co.uk, siobhan@sittingspiritually.co.uk"; $subject = "Newsletter Sign Up"; $mailheader = "From: $email \r\n"; mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!"); if ( mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) ){ header('Location: http://www.sittingspiritually.co.uk/thankyou.php'); } else { die ("error"); } ?> I have recently created a small snippet of php code for posting mail and it's sweet apart from 1 thing. I have two email addresses in the recipient section. It only sends to the last name in the list. Is this because i have written recipient? Should it be recipients? I need this mail to be delivered to both of the email addresses. I'm sure it's simple for someone with expert knowledge. Thanks in advance for any help.

I need your help as many PHPers here is more experienced in PHP coding than me. I have specific project I am working on and need a piece of code that can send an email from HTML form using PHP to the email address that is entered manually on the form, instead of standard sent to PHP code that is fixed within PHP script and executed during submission. I want sth that can grab manually enetered recipient's e-mail address, paste it to the PHP code and then use it to send the email to the recipient, instead of fixed sent to code. Something would say dynamically changed during the entry that can inject into PHP code the new address email entered on the form and then submit to it. Any ideas will be great.
Thanks.
Edited March 27, 2019 by slawotrend Hello, I have those code: $message = " Hello $inforow2['company']<br /> This is a notice about a pending invoice at $inforow3['company'].<br /> If you would like to see the invoice, you can see it <a href='http://$inforow3['url]'/view-invoice?id=$id.php'>here</a><br /> This is an automatic message. Replies will not be monitored.<br /> Yours faithfully<br />$inforow3['company']"; mail($inforow2['email'],"Invoice overdue #1",$message,$inforow3['sentfrom']); I'm not sure if I can send this, and it will get the values from my mysql and put it in the email or it would send the text directly, and if it ill take the html.. Can any one tell me if above code would be correct? I understand you need to use the mail() command but this just wont work for me, my webserver is with godaddy, and they sent me an email saying that i need to use a relay server to send my mail, how do i set this up or anything? Hello, I have been using the mail() command for a while now, but for some reason It has just stopped functioning all together. I have added an OR DIE rule to the end of it and had no response. To all intents and purposes that mail is being sent - there are no errors whatsoever - just the mail is not getting delivered. I cannot think of anything I've done or changed that would stop it from being delivered, I haven't even been near the function that does it in a while. Here is the code: Code: [Select] function sendMail($to,$ref) { $subject = 'Booking Confirmation'; $file = "receipts/$ref.htm"; $fh=fopen($file, "r"); $message = fread($fh, filesize($file)); fclose($fh); $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'From: Company <noreply@company.co.uk>' . "\r\n"; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); } I have taken out the public names involved, but otherwise thats the code. It has worked absolutely fine in the past, and even If I strip out all of the filehandling part of it, and just use a simple $from - $to - $message, it still seems not actually send the mail. It wouldnt be so bad If I at least had an error to go on, but I dont I am just simply not getting the mail. Please help! ~Chud37 I'm trying to send email with php for the first time.
