Plain text email to multiple recipients in php

I changed servers, now none of my original mail scripts work. Strange.

Anyway I have been looking around for some alternative scripts and stumbled up on this.

I have tested the script below and it sends fine to, two people.

If I add anymore email address in the $to, it no longer works.

I know this script is not ideal, but it does the job I need it to do.

<?php
$to = "$email_address1,$email_address2";
$subject = "Test mail";
$message = "This is a test?";
$from = "$email_address";
$headers = "From: $from";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
echo "Mail Sent.";
?>

MAX_RCPTS_PER_MESSAGE

Is a setting in Sendmail that limits the number of recipients that one email can be sent to. This is done at your new host (probably) to prevent spammers from exploiting a badly written form that allows header injection. To get around this, you can send to each email address just once:

<?php
$recipients = array($email_address1, $email_address2);
$subject = "Test mail";
$message = "This is a test?";
$from = "$email_address";
$headers = "From: $from";
foreach ($recipients as $recipient) {
	if ( mail($recipient,$subject,$message,$headers) )
		echo "Mail Sent to $recipient.";
}
?>

Brilliant thank you very much.
This has solved one problem. I am getting emails. Now another person I send to is not getting them. They have their own mail server, so I can only presume they need to sort their settings out.

Thank you again.
