PHP mail Multiple BCC:

**cancer10** · Apr 13, 2009 08:26

Hi

The PHP manual does not tell me anything about it so I thought this is the best place to ask.

Does the PHP Mail function allow multiple recipent either in TO or CC or BCC separated by comma?

For example

Code PHP:

<?php
mail('nobody@example.com,me@myserver.com,you@gmail.com,sam@email.com', 'the subject', 'the message', null,
   '-fwebmaster@example.com');
?>

OR

Code PHP:

<?php
 
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
 
// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Birthday Reminder <birthday@example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Cc: [email]birthdayarchive@example.com[/email]' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: [email]birthdaycheck@example.com,me@myserver.com,you@gmail.com,sam@email.com[/email]' . "\r\n";
 
// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
 
 
Thanks for your input.

yes it does seperated by a comma.

PHP Code:


$toaddress = 'email1@123.com,email2@123.com,'.$email3;

I've not seen you full code, but below is a working sample that you can use or customize to your needs.

PHP Code:


<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.row1{
    font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:11px;
    font-type:normal;
    padding:2px;
    background-color:#E6E6E6;}
.row2{
    font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:11px;
    font-type:normal;
    padding:2px;
    background-color: #F2F2F2;}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php

//check that variables filled
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
    {

    //request type
    $test = trim($_POST['test']);
    $test2 = trim($_POST['test2']);
    $test3 = trim($_POST['test3']);
                


$recipient2=$email;
$toaddress = 'email_1@123.com,email_2@123.com';


$subject = 'subject: ';
$mailcontent = 'test: '.$test."\n"
               .'test2: '.$test2."\n"
               .'Wtest3: '.$test3."\n";
               



$fromaddress  = "From: 123@123.com,\r\n";
$fromaddress  .="BCC: 123@123.com,1235@123.com\r\n";
//prototype is mail(string to, string subject, string message, string additional_headers, string additional_parameters)
mail($toaddress, $subject, $mailcontent, $fromaddress);


if(!mail)
    {
        echo'<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">
            <tr align="center">
            <td colspan="1" align="left">

            <tr />
            <td>
            <font size="6">Email Form</font>
            </td>
            <tr />
            <td>&nbsp;</td>
            <tr />
            <td>There was a problem sending your email: </td>
            </table>';
        exit;
    }
    else
    {
    
    echo'<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">
            <tr align="center">
            <td colspan="1" align="left">
            <img src="mpsgi.gif" border="0"></td>
            <tr />
            <td>
            <font size="6">Change Control Form</font>
            </td>
            <tr />
            <td>&nbsp;</td>
            <tr />
            <td>Thank you for email.</td><tr><td><b>Date: </b>'; 
            echo'</td>';
            echo'</tr>
            </table>';
        exit;
    }
    
}
?>

</body>
