Hi Roy,

I made the following function:
function MYmail($fromaddress, $toaddress, $subject, $body, $headers) {
$fp = popen('/usr/sbin/sendmail -f'.$fromaddress.' '.$toaddress,"w");
if(!$fp) return false;
fputs($fp, "To: $toaddress\n");
fputs($fp, "Subject: $subject\n");
fputs($fp, $headers."\n\n");
fputs($fp, $body);
fputs($fp, "\n");
pclose($fp);
return true;
}

In the $subject you can put anything that you want.

Regards,

Does your PHP solution show the recipients name only in the TO field? I have
a client that wants to send out about 400 messages at a time to his clients,
but wants the "newsletter" to appear as a personalized newsletter (at least
within the TO: field). majordomo shows the list address in the TO field.

Thanks,

Roy
