Sorry about the indenting. I copy-pasted directly from Dreamweaver.

I have a script I've used to send MIME-encoded mails. The script reads
in an address file, explodes it into an array then sends a mail message
to each address. I tested the script before with some 30-40 addresses
and it worked fine. Then I commented out the line that sends the mail
and instead printed the address to make sure the addresses are correct
before sending.
Being fairly confident I then un-commented the line, removed the
print() and re-ran the script. Once.
My browser didn't receive a reply in the next 20 minutes. I never
repeated the request. However, I know the script has run at least nine
times, with no loop in it that could possibly cause that.
The effect being, that a load of people have received a lot of what
they now consider spam, and are rather angry.
So, am I looking at
a) a bug or a feature of the browser that caused the page to be
re-requested (at least nine times)
b) a bug in php that caused a re-run instead of a timeout or
c) my reflection in the mirror as I realise that the error has been
mine?
Here's the offending script:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
include('htmlMimeMail.php');
$mail = new htmlMimeMail();
$logo = $mail->getFile('xxxx.gif');
$fd = fopen("xxxx.txt","r");
$rivi = '';
while (!feof($fd))
{
$rivi .= fgets($fd, 1000);
}
fclose ($fd);
$sendTo = explode("\n",$rivi);
$html = $mail->getFile('xxxx.html');
$mail->setHtml($html);
$mail->addHtmlImage($logo, 'xxxx.gif', 'image/gif');
$mail->setFrom('"xxxxxx" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>');
$mail->setSubject('xxxxxxxxx');
$mail->setHeader('X-Mailer', 'xxxxxxxx');
$count = 0;
foreach($sendTo as $rec)
{
$result = $mail->send(array($rec), 'mail');
$count++;
}
echo "$count Mails sent!";
?>
