Re: sending to multiple email addresses

I'm sure it's possible, and I'll take a stab at the syntax.
if all of the addresses are in a data base the I would try this if the data is close to this;
perlkid@host.com|perlkid|
cure@thesavior.com|cure|
## first field email second name
$yourmail="yourmail\@host.com";
$mailprog="/usr/lib/sendmail";
open(email, "</home/html/database/email.db");
@all=<email>;
close(email);
foreach $line (@all)
{
@fields = split(/\|/, $line);
$theirname = ucfirst($fields[1]);
$mailprog="/usr/lib/sendmail";
$mailto = "$fields[0]";
open (MAIL, "| $mailprog -t -oi") | | die "Can't open $mailprog";
print MAIL "To: $mailto\n";
print MAIL "From: $yourmail\n";
print MAIL "Subject:Testing\n";
print MAIL "Welcome to this mailing list.\n";
}
The mail code may be a little off but it's just to give you an idea. Hope that works. Make sure to close the fields in the data base with a pipe or the code won't work.
