PHPMailer is a good way to go.
Return receipts are an added header. I think this is it but you should
verify and test:
Disposition-Notification-To: Your Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Reading from a file is straight forward and there are examples on
php.net's website: http://php.net/file
Here's a copy and paste:
// Get a file into an array. In this example we'll go through HTTP to get
// the HTML source of a URL.
$lines = file('http://www.example.com/');
// Loop through our array, show HTML source as HTML source; and line
numbers too.
foreach ($lines as $line_num => $line) {
echo "Line #<b>{$line_num}</b> : " . htmlspecialchars($line) . "<br
/>\n";
}

The Plan is to email everyone and those that don't respond or indicate
receipt of the message will be sent an (expensive) certified letter.
I can build the list no problem, and write the addy's to a text file.
What I don't know how to do is iterate through the list, retrieve each
line's email addy from the file, and then send the mail with these
parameters:
-Return Receipt requested
-an email address that would be different than what I'm currently logged
in as i.e. 'spoof' the address to be something like
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' rather than 'root' or whatever
-BCC to myself
Looking at phpMailer I think I could get close, but don't see a Return
Receipt option, nor do I know how to get in/out of the text file.
This is *just* beyond my php skills and I'm sure I could figure it out
eventually...
Can someone tell me if:
a) given my limited linux skills, that phpMailer is a decent way to go
b) if phpMailer supports Return Receipt requests and I'm just not seeing it
b) how to retrieve a line from a text file.
Thanks,
