[PHP-WIN] Query within Mail Function

[James Meers]

Hi, 
 
Please bear with my limited knowledge of PHP...
 
Does anyone know if it is possible to code a sql query within the message part of the 
mail function, e.g.:
 
mail( "$to_mail","$sumject","
 
$sql = mysql_query("select * from table")
or   die("error with query\n");
 
       while ($row  =  mysql_fetch_array($sql)) {
       $db_name=$row["name"];
       $db_email=$row["email"];      
       $db_age=$row["age"];    
       
       echo"$name - $email - $age";
       
       }
 
" );
 
This obviously is wrong, does anyone know if its possible, if so, what is the right 
way of writing it??
 
Cheers
 
James
