Re: [PHP-DB] Autonomous Mass Mail List System (Broadcast Email)
I've never used it but php has functions to deal with "flat file databases" like this one. There is an example on "PHP Professional Programming", a book of Wrox. HTH.

Re: [PHP-DB] Autonomous Mass Mail List System (Broadcast Email)
there are a number of reasons why we don't want it in a db. the number one reason is because we cannot send a volume of mail of that size on our server. we use a VPS, so our server is shared resources. on a good day, when it can, we will get an email from the hosting comp with a warning on draining the server of its resources. and yes i know majordomo is perl. why are you referencing me to another list, i explicity said i don't want to go that way. so jeez, next time please don't waste your time or mine or the bandwidth of the php listserv if you don't have anything but condisending statements to make. learn a couple of lines of, lol. wh... like connecting to a database, and sending sql statements, and then displaying the results... sounds like you know it all buddy. snooge >so jeez, i > jeez, > > dump it all in a database. > than learn a couple of lines of php. > majordomo is perl... other discussion list. > > good luck > > # -Mensagem original- > # De: Jason Beebe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > # Enviada em: Wednesday, January 10, 2001 10:49 PM > # Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > # Assunto: [PHP-DB] Autonomous Mass Mail List System (Broadcast Email) > # > # > # Hey Everyone, > # > # I'm working a project for one of the company's websites. they > # have a subscription mailing list that the user signs up their > # email address to receies periodical emailings. > # > # The email addresses are stored in a flat txt file. 1 email per > # line.

Don't reinvent the wheel. It will take you longer to write it than it will to learn to admin majordomo or any of 10 other programs like it.

[PHP-DB] Autonomous Mass Mail List System (Broadcast Email)
Hey Everyone, I'm working a project for one of the company's websites. they have a subscription mailing list that the user signs up their email address to receies periodical emailings. The email addresses are stored in a flat txt file. 1 email per line. I could also convert it to a coma delimited txt file if it would be easier. So, they've had problem with people who no longer want to receive emails, and one's that bounce for whatever reason, generally a bad email address. What I am trying to find out if who has some information to set up a system where we will send out our emails to the subscribers with our mailing list manager. when i customer respondes with a certain command in the body or subject (like unsubscribe) or if the mail bounces, I'd like it to search out the email address and delete it. Now, I know there's lists like majordomo that do something similar. But I'm looking for something a little more straightforward. I also know this may be more along the lines of shell scripting, but I thought some of you ingenious people may have already done something similar or have some ideas on where to start. thanks.
