I need some advice as to how to approach this problem.
I've got a mail alias file, space delimited and sorted on the second column like: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I need to send an email to each of the addresses on the right. I could send this line by line but then jsmith would get two emails, when I want to send one. The second thing I need to do is grab all these addresses to use as variables in the body of the email that will get sent. The email would read something like: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These are your email aliases: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is your official email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The part I need help with is how to grab lines in the file with the same email address (address on the right) and treat them as "one record" as well as treat those with a single email address as one record? Maybe another way to state this is how do I get the lines with [EMAIL PROTECTED] into an array, process that, and then grab a line with a single address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] and process that? Thanks for any pointers. I'd include some code but I don't even know where to start.
