Mailinglist and Flush()

[Anon]

I have a maillist script .. that get emails from Mysql Db and sends emails ..
I have over 8000 email addresses .. so I have a hard time sending emails .. I 've read somewhere in the fourms that I have to use Flush()
But frankly I'm not sure how to use it should I use it inside the loop

while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($res))
{
// send email..
// should flush be here and how..???
}

thanks in advance..

well i assume you cant send them because of the high volume so fast, so read up on sleep()
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sleep.php

that might take care of ya.

while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($res))
{

$message="The message";
mail($whomever, "email subject", $message,"From: [e-mail]\nRe
ply-To: [e-mail]\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());

sleep(60);
}

something like that should work? if you have sendmail installed. and you make whomever your receipient of each record or whathave you.
