Try something like:
<?php
$listquery = "SELECT emailaddress FROM subscribers";
$listresult = mysql_query($listquery);
$newsquery = "SELECT * FROM newsarticles";
$newsresult = mysql_query($newsquery);
while($listrow = mysql_fetch_array($listresult)) {
$newsrow = mysql_fetch_array($newsresult))
$message = $newsrow[article];
$recipient = $listrow[emailaddress];
$subject = "Welcome to my ezine";
$mailheaders = "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\n";
$mailheaders .= "Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]";
mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $mailheaders);
}
echo ("The message has been sent</p>");
?>
if it works, which it should, and you would like to know why, please email
me and Ill explain it ;)
