Jason,
I have recently read about another quite useful way to do what you want:
create a separate php script file the purpose of which is to do the actual
mail sending. From your main PHP script on the website, use system() [see
documentation] to call that script and let that script process the mail
sending in the background. Your user won't have any feedback about the mail
sending process, but you could design a system that logs the process
information to a file or database, and display that information once the
sending is done.
