Have you timed it? You might want to check it doesn't take longer than the max_execution_time directive in php.ini allows (you'll have to check if that's the correct name for it). I've also used set_time_limit(0) at the top of my scripts when I know it's going to take a while...
Regards Chris -----Original Message----- From: Trevor Dowling [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 September 2003 16:46 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Mail problem PHP Version 4.3.2 I am having problems sending a large number of emails from a mail list held in a database. I don't belive that the database has anything to do with the problem. I have about 9000 addresses and can only successfully send about 2000 mails before the page say complete/done. Below is the code that I am running, no error messages are returned from the mail function, it just stops. About 2000 mails are sent OK. Anyone know what the problem is? Trevor $query_string = "SELECT DISTINCT email FROM [user]"; $result = odbc_exec ($odbc_connection, $query_string); $Message = "Mail Text"; $Index = 0; while (odbc_fetch_row ($result)) { $EmailAddress = trim (odbc_result ($result, 'email')); flush(); @mail ($EmailAddress, "Support", $Message); $Index++; echo ("<BR>Email Address: $EmailAddress"); // DEBUG echo ("<BR>ErrorCode: ${ErrorCode}"); // DEBUG echo (".........${Index}"); // DEBUG } -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php If you are not the intended recipient of this e-mail, please preserve the confidentiality of it and advise the sender immediately of any error in transmission.
