Bulk Mail With PHPMailer?
Is it safe to use PHPMailer to send bulk mail? If so, how do i know it will not time out? Should i be using the phpMassMailer class? How do i know that that one will not time out?
I am using my localhost godaddy dedicated SMTP server to send out mail, and only a couple will go through at a time. I have to wait about an hour for the rest to send. Is there another SMTP server i should be using?

Bulk E-Mail Thru PHP
My client has a website that offers a newsletter to readers. They signup for the newsletter and I store their e-mail into a SQL database. I want to enable my client to use the data in that database to send an e-mail to these ppl through a page on their site. ... I guess the real question is, would it be ok to do something like, FOR each EMAIL in DATABASE mail($to,$subject,$body,$headers); Or is that too intensive on the server?...I don't expect more than a thousand people to ever sign up for this thing.

Mail() Sent To The Bulk Mail Folder
I simply send a confirmation email to someone who has registered on my site but thte message usually gets filtered or sent to the bulk mail folder. Can someone tell me what type of content I should put in the email to get around the filter? All my content is so far is a thanks for registering message and a link for them to confirm their email address.

Bulk Mail() + Attachment In A Loop
I have the idea that sending bulk mail in batches is the thing to do. Script timing out [max_input_time ?], spam, and such. About 500 on the mail list. I send in lots of 100. Are batches a good idea? Not necessary? Other thoughts? Attachments: I have got the script sending an attachment - in a single batch loop. But, from the PHP manual >> file will be deleted from the temporary directory at the end of the request... I presume this means the end of the first batch. So, I hesitate to charge off exploring alternatives without your guidance. My script hand is slow and debugging can be tediously slow - especially with mail script as it can only be done on-line and I am on 36k dial-up at the moment. My first thought is to literally upload the file to my server and unlink on completion of the last batch.

Mail Going To Yahoo Bulk Folder
I have got a small problem with the php mail function. I send mail to my yahoo account using mail function, it is going to the bulk folder instead of the inbox. I have included all the headers for the mail to function. This is the code I have used. $to = "to@domain.com"; $subject = "Test Subject"; $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0"; $headers.= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"; $headers.= "From: MyName <MyEmail>"; $msg = "Test Message"; mail($to,$subject,$msg,$headers);

Exim / Php Mail Function / Bulk Mailing
I've learned that my new dedicated server comes with exim installed. From what I understand, you can use php's mail() with exim, but you can't modify the 'From' header. I need to do that so I've scurried in search of an alternative to the mail function. I found the function below ( from http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mail.php#41340 ) works well, but, not being at all familiar with exim, I have a few questions about it. Is it feasible to be used in a bulk email script (1 call per email)? I'm a little concerned about the sleep function. Obviously that's going to slow down an already somewhat resource intensive bulk email script. So what is it actually there for and is it really even needed? If this isn't a doable solution, is there something else you could suggest?

PHPMailer Vs Mail() Function
I am developing a simple mailing system. This requires sending emails in HTML format to one or more recipient. I am currently using PHP's mail() function. It works alright but it doesn't seem reliable. I am not able to send email to my hotmail account but it does send to yahoo account. I'm not sure if there is something about hotmail that blocks emails for some unknown reason. If it goes to yahoo, it must go to hotmail. it doesn't even appear on junk mail section of hotmail. so i'm thining if I use PHPMailer, will it solve this issue? what are your thoughts?

PHPmailer - SMTP Vs Mail & Time Out
I am trying to send out 50,000 + emails through PHPmailer. I am using the $mail->Send();. Is it better to use SMTP so my server won't get blocked for spam? Is SMTP better for the server resources, it's a lot of HTML mail going out? The PHPmailer program does not seem to be sending out all the emails and it seems to time out. Is this due to the max_execution_time in the php configuration? Or has anyone used the PHPmailer to send out over 100,000+ emails? Our email list is growing and I need to make sure all emails are going out.

Bulk Uploading
Recently im building a domain portfolio where it allow user to manage their domain names in an easy to use web panel. Everything goes smoothly until i had to develop a bulk uploading system. Does anyone has any idea on how to develop it? The sys should goes like this: Let's assume that there is a textarea where user may type in as many url as they like seperated by enter. Which means one domain per line. Then there should has a processing script where it will enter that list one by one into mysql database. My thinking is to explode the list into an array and then insert one by one into the DB but i face difficulties.

Bulk Email Tool
I'm trying to write a bulk email tool. I ran a test on my server to see how robust the mail() function would be when under load. I wrote a simple script that just incremented the alias part of the email address and then sent it. I set it in a loop to send 1000 emails, but just over 27% of them failed. My automated email tool will need to send out a newsletter to about 17,000 people. How should I go about it? The test I ran leads me to believe that simply looping through the email addresses of all site members would not be reliable. What would be best?use usleep() to have a very small pause after each email is sent?only send 200 at a time?

Bulk Emailing With SMTP
I'm researching ways of using PHP/mySQL to send a single HTML formatted email message with attachments to many, perhaps 1000 recipients. From what I've read in this forum it seems a good idea to bulk mail by sending the mail message and recipient list to a SMTP server rather than repeatedly calling the mail() function. This avoids the situation where the server stops a php script from executing due to time out. What does SMTP support that makes it more effective for this sort of thing? also is the phpmailer class from Source Forge an effective php script for bulk mailing HTML formatted email to many users?

I Have Some Problems With Phpmailer....
My server has all the latest versions of everything installed, including phpmailer 1.71. So this should be a no-brainer, right? I downloaded a VERY nice simple mailing list script from webinsta.com. Installs easily, sets up quickly, up and running in no time.... but.... You KNEW there was a "but", right? Here's what happens. I have a choice of 3 mail servers: phpmail, sendmail, and smtp. smtp gives me fsockopen() errors no matter what I do. In trying to use either phpmail or sendmail (and after correcting the path to sendmail so it's right - that is, usr/sbin/sendmail), I get the following errors (I'm sending to the listed addys only - my own - for testing purposes): self@domain1.com gives no errors, message received just fine self@domain2.com gives no errors, message received just fine self@domain3.net produces 'unrouteable mail domain "domain3.net"' self@gmail.com produces 'unrouteable mail domain "gmail.com"' self@yahoo.com produces 'unrouteable mail domain "yahoo.com"' Note please that these are ALL valid, working email addresses for myself. Also please notice that the two mails I get just fine using either phpmail or sendmail are on the same "umbrella" server as they are being sent FROM. *sigh* Anyone have any ideas?

Phpmailer/smtp
my phpmailer script, which emails a cart confirmation to a customer, does not work every now and then. However, I've identified when this happens, and am guessing at the problem. At work, we have wireless connectivity, and the way they have their wireless setup, I can NOT send mail, via outlook, using my websites smtp server. The wireless connection at work FORCES me to use their smtp server in order to send mail via outlook. And this is where i have problems with phpmailer. So is this because of the same reason? Is it because the phpmailer uses smtp and the isp that i am using here at work will not allow me to use another smtp other than theirs?
