Apologies if this has been asked here many times.
My development environment is PHP 4.0.5 on IIS 4.0. In my apps, I send out a stream of
5-12 emails using mail() function. The first email usually goes through fine, but the succeeding ones report a variety of errors - some don't get sent, some get bounced back because the address has somehow been altered by PHP (altho it looks fine in debug mode).
It seems to me that there should be some kind of delay between calls to mail() to avoid "overloading" problems. Is this a Win32 problem?
BTW, I am not running an STMP server - just relying on an outside STMP server.
Also, I plan to port the apps to a Apache-based webhost. Does Apache have these kind of problems? What is the best way to code mass mailing? I have heard about outputting to a pickup folder. Is this best for both Win32 and Linux platforms?
Thanks everyone!
