hello guys...i was looking for a script that sends mails to my frineds at once or to send like 50 mails at once and i saw that actually fantastico has a script already pre-installed, but it is not as good as i expected it would.

The mails are send as spam and that is not actually a good solution since many companies well ok hotmail deletes that kind of mails, and yahoo! send'em to the spam too. And i never could have the mailing list properly working.

So i would like to have a easier to use script and also that the mails host doesnt think it is all spam and something that could be awsome is to send fully html pages such as the ones i receive from macromedia
thanx in advance

I assume you use the PHP function mail(); ??? Your mail will probably end up in the BULK/SPAM folder since it doesn't say who send it. You just used this, didn't you?:



You should add this header so the spamfilter sees who send it:



So you got this:



Hope this helps. Otherwise you just have to say to your friends that they have to whitelist your domain.

I wrote a basic mailing list script years ago. I just tested it and it works perfectly on Trap 17. If you want a copy of it then email me or get me on MSN, all my details are in my profile here. It is only one file, but has basic verification, admin functions, user confirmation etc, and also has a simple installer. It currently has no visuals what so ever, as I never had time to create them, another project stopped me, but you could easily customise it to suit your site design.

As Warbird has said, many services don't accept emails if there is no sender, or if other header information is missing, so make sure you include everything.

Hi rvalkass,

I am interested in your mailing list script. I want to know weather it handles mail sent to a group id or it is only a one way script where users can't send mails to list.
