Using the mail() function

[jcvertin]

When you use the mail fuction like this:

mail($recipient, $subject, "", $headers);

is there a way to hide who is receiving the e-mail? I want to send out a message to like 100 people and I don't want any of them to see who has received the e-mail. The problem is that all their e-mail addresses appear in the "To" box in their e-mail when they open the message. I'd like the "To" box to say something generic like "Friends" or something instead of everyone's e-mail addresses. Any ideas? Thanks.

Well, you can't just have it say "Friends", but there are a couple of things you can do.

First of all, you could BCC it to everyone so they can only see their own e-mail address.

Or you could create a while loop and loop through all the e-mail addresses, sending 1 e-mail per loop to 1 person.

While ($i = 0; $i < count($emailsarray); $i++)
{
      mail($emailsarray[$i], $subject, $message, $headers);
}
