I need to send newsletters to our visitors. The site runs on php. But I don't have the standard php mail function due to Windows. I have used the PEAR smtp client realisation. But it is to slow to send all mails (about 1000) - php has time out 30 sec and then aborts the script. I thought I can send one mail with long Bcc field (with all adresses) but I am not sure that it will work...

 

Can anyone please give me an advise how to implement this and say the decision about Bcc field?

 

And one more question - how to implement such mailing with ASP.NET? With standard send function or some other way? Or probably there are also some tricky moments? 

 

Thank you in advance 

Best bet it to probably use a mailing list which people can subscribe / unsubscribe to. If this isn't already part of your plan contact sales@ultimahosts.net for pricing.

I need to take the mailing list form the base...
 

I have got another problem - I send mails from php using PEAR (it implements a smtp client), it connects to smtp with authorisation and sends mails.  But mails are delievered only to the same domain  (thinking-approach.org). All other mails with reciepients from other domains (gmail.com etc.) don't recieve these mails. What can be the problem? Or probably I should make some changes in settings?

 

Thank you 

Seems to be resolved. I used an invalid password by smtp-authentication. It's strange that it has worked for local recipients.
