Hi Wiz,
Would need a bit more info to be able to help: A code snippet, Info on what
it is linked into for getting the addresses. How is it sending the mail?
There are a few opportunities for hiccups in the process for getting or
sending and it might be that you have some funny loop happening that is
eventually firing something out but it taking ages to do it. Without a
better understanding of what you are working with it is difficult to say.
I presume it is something your friend has put together for you rather than a
component that someone else has written that you are using.
If it is a script that you are running from a web page I would try using
some var_dump($some_variable); just after you have called a database and
supplement the $some_variable with the result variable from the query.You
can do the same for the query string so you can see what it was looking for
and even do the lookup manually to double check it. I would also do the same
thing where you find loops to see what it is happening. The other thing you
can do it add in print date("H:i:s",time()).', got to pint: A<br/>'; at
different places in the code to show you where it is or isn't getting to,
places like the middle of if statements or before and after a call to what
is sending the mail and in loops. This gives you a time stamp so you can see
if there are long delays on a function call or a nasty loop happening or it
is not getting to a place it should be.
A couple of emails and hour will also most likely be putting your PHP
process into 100% usage if you are stuck in a loop which may or may not be a
problem but I would have thought you would have timed out on your script
execution before then based on your PHP ini file settings. Let us know how
you get on. If you need someone to look at it for you more directly you can
email me and I will post the result here so others get the benefit.
