Advanced Mailing List (any advise?)

[Anon]

The aim is to send mails to a mailing list, but not via a web form. For example, sending mail to [e-mail] should resend the content to all subscribers of the abc mailing list (whose mails are gained from a Mysql table btw). Also if any user replies with subject "cancel", his or her e-mail should be deleted from the datebase.

I look forward to any refference you could give me.

SELECT ... (all email )

for i in result
{
$mail = result(i,0) ;
BCC.=", $mail "
}
mail ($to,$bcc,....)

Something like this

good luck

Well, the problem is another. I don't know how to make the script running, when there's a mail in the mailbox. You see, when a mail is written to [e-mail], the script must run and do what you have suggested. I have no idea how something like that can happen 🙁
Help plz

u must learn how to use the function
mail()

u can the address of people to send to, from Mysql's table.

and then for every entry do:

$bc . = " , $mail";

this will create bc= a000@host., b000@host...

a list of email separated by comma

after this just call the funciton mail()

mail ($to,$bcc,$subject,.....)

BCC mean that the mail must be sent to all mails (separated by comma) in add of $to
which is the first reciever

Good luck,:-) i hope that's give more info

PS : learn the the function mail(..,...,.)

I perfectly know how to use mail() function.
I have no difficulties creating the script! But this script must be run on the server, when there is a new mail in the mailbox. I perfectly know how to open the mailbox, get the mail and then forward it to everyone from the table. What I DON'T know is how to make the script start automaticaly when there's a new mail!

I'm sorry for repeating myself. I'm just trying to clean everything out

OKI now it's clear

Sorry! i don't know how to make SNMP run
any script each time he receive a new mail

good luck :-(
