I know how to code it all, but how should I go about emailing all users from a database?

The db has their emails and stuff.

MAIL() Function To Send An Email When Users Register
I have created a registration page for my site, and once the information provided is validated OK, the script inserts all the data on to MYSQL and after that it sends a Welcome Email to the user.

My problem is that the user has to wait sometimes few minutes, with the form on front of then while  the script is sending the mail.

My questions are:

1) Is there a way to "pipe/delegate" the email job to another script while freeing the form web page, as in the Process Flow:

Form Completed ------(3 seconds)----> New page "welcome to the Club" --( fork another script)---(1 to 4 minutes)----> Send Welcome email to the user

2) While the email is being sent, the form page refreshed to a "Waiting Bar.GIF" and when the email is sent it refreshed to a new page like: "welcome Html Page"?

Prevent Users From Requerying The MySQL Database.
I am building a simple forum/disussion area for a website. When a user posts a new message, they type info into a FORM which opens another page that queries the database (performing an INSERT INTO... statement). This works fine...

However, if the user RENEWS the final page in their browser, the database is requeried with the same information that was posted from the FORM! (Thereby storing repeat information) How can I prevent this?

Form To Email AND Database
The server I am on requires using cgiemail to send form data. I want to also send this data to a mysql database using php. Is this possible? How?

Database/Email Script
I am no PHP programmer. At my current job I made it known that I was no
PHP programmer during the interview. Still they have given me a script
to write with the understanding that it will take me a while (This
information is just for general knowledge as I don't want anyone
thinking I am trying to be dishonest with my intentions. Also, I do not
portray myself as something I am not. I am a beginner.)

Anyway, what the script needs to do is to take variables passed from an
HTML form and do two things. One is read it into a database. The other
is to send me an email with all of the customer's information.

//Name of the script is test.php
<?php
//I am using this echo command to make sure that the variables where
passed correctly.
echo $_Post['FName']; //Never displays
//Here is where the script for the database connections starts
$username='username'
$password='password'
$hostname='localhost'
$databasename='database'
//Here is where the database connection is actually made
$conection = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password);
mysql_select_db($databasename) or die ("Cannot connect to
database");
//With the database connection open, I start to insert the data from
the HTML form.
$result = mysql_query("INSERT INTO table() VALUES($FName,
$LName, $Company, $Title, $Address, $Apt, $City, $State, $Zip, $Phone,
$Fax, $Email, $Var1, $Var2, $Var3, $Var4, $Var5)");
//After reading the information into the table, we close the database
connection
mysql_close();
//This is where the email script starts (Both the database and email
scripts are inside the same php tags)
$mail_to="email address";
$mail_subject = "Review Registration";
$mail_body = "First Name: $_Post[FName]";
$mail_body .= "Last Name: $_Post[LName]" ;
$mail_body .= "Company: $_Post[Company]" ;
$mail_body .= "Title: $_Post[Title]" ;
$mail_body .= "Street: $_Post[Address]" ;
$mail_body .= "Apt: $_Post[Apt]" ;
$mail_body .= "City: $_Post[City]" ;
$mail_body .= "Zip: $_Post[Zip]" ;
$mail_body .= "Phone: $_Post[Phone]" ;
$mail_body .= "Fax: $_Post[Fax]" ;
$mail_body .= "Email: $_Post[Email]" ;
$mail_body .= "Var1: $_Post[Var1]" ;
$mail_body .= "Var2: $_Post[Var2]" ;
$mail_body .= "Var3: $_Post[Var3]" ;

Email Addresses In Database
I've just created a login system, and everything works fine. There's only one problem that I'm faced with at the moment, and that's the update profile page.

Now when you appear on this page, the data form fields show up, containing your current username, email address, name etc. But when you click submit, it comes back with "Your email is already in use!". Yes it's in use, because the user is signed up with that address.

What piece of code would I need to add in order to update the profile without getting an email in use error?

POST To Mysql Database And Email Results?
I have a simple html form that POSTs to a mysql database. Can I, and if so, how can I, have it post to the mysql database, and email the form results too.

Pulling Email Address From Database For Mail()
Maybe it's because it's late or maybe I'm just a newbie (couldn't be) but I'm having trouble with getting all the names from my database into my $to variable.

$sql_mail = "SELECT email
FROM players
WHERE email!= 'none'";
$result_mail = mysql_query($sql_mail);

//bunch of error message validation stuff...

//fetch email addresses from query
while($row_mail = mysql_fetch_assoc($result_mail)){
$to = $row_mail['email'].", ";
}
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$headers .= "From: Me <email@site.com>";
$headers .= "Reply-To: email@site.com;
$message = $_POST['message'] . "";

//now before sticking $to in mail() now with my $headers, $subject and $message I figured that if I try that php will only include the first record.

echo $to; //returns first record as I figured.

How do I keep the list of emails from my while without having all the other stuff ($headers etc) repeat with every record?

Complicated Email Parse Or Text Extraction And Database Insertion
I am trying to strip some data out of numerous emails and place it in
my database. I know that this seems as if it has been done before.
But, this is a little different. First, the numerous emails all have a
set of data that needs to be extracted and inserted into the database.
Some of the data in the email is id, name, address, city, state, zip,
company, etc. The catch is that the date is formated and presented
differently in each email. Take into consideration the following email
examples:

- excert from email #1
ID:.............. 12345
Name:............ JOHN DOE
Address:......... PO BOX 9999
City:............ Somecity
State:........... CA
Zip Code:........ 90210 ....

a BD application behing it might be ideal as it would let users add
and delete themselves and each topic would have it's own email list
name identity.

Users Online Help!
I have a column in my datasase and whenever you login, it sets it to "yes". The Users online just retrieves all users that have "yes" in that column. However, the only way to get the user off the Users Online list (make the column "no") is to go via logout. I don't want this to be the users only choice. I want the online column in the database to be set to "no" if they have been on a page for 30 minutes. Now I figured out most of the code, but I can't seem to find a way to track the number of minutes (or any time) that the user has been on the page. I tried incorporation JS but I can't get that to work. I tried cookie's but I got nothing. BTW: I'm using sessions so $_SESSION['online'] controls the online status.

Can someone please help me track the minutes the user has been on the page?

Mailing All Users

Unsetting this footer after each email has sent has made no effect. The code:

Mailing My Users
My site was down for a few days so I tried to send my users a mail telling them it's back up, but it seems hotmail thinks it is spam! Please tell me how I can fix this.. cause it is only sent to people that register and it only takes 1 click to unsubscribe.. so it's definitely not spam.. 

BTW I'm using argosoft mail server

P.S. it keeps turning itself off so that I have to press the start button again over and over every time. Is there a way to fix this? It happens many times a day! T_T

Oh and I'm using windows in case that makes a differance.

Users Online

You have to be logged in to view the website, so I thought users would like to know whose online with them. How do I do this? I read other related topics and people said use a timestamp and another mysql table?  Whats a timestamp?

Email Authentication, How To Check If Just One Email
I've a few functions to check if an email is valid. What I'm wondering is how to make sure there are only one email for each field? What we are building is a contest in which a participant can send an invitation to up to 5 friends (5 email fields), sending an invitation would give one more chance of winning the prize.

The fields are 40 characters, but how do I prevent someone from entering 2 email in the same field provided that the 2 are less then 40 characters total? If the 2 email are complete it's not so much of a problem, the participant would only receive one extra chance not two the mail function would send to both email no problem (provided the user superated them by either a space of semi-colon). But if the second email is incomplete and the user doesn't notice it then the mail admin would receive an error stating that the second email is not good...

Anyway to prevent all that I really need to make sure of 2 things.
1) that there's only one email listed in the box and
2) that the email is valid.
