Hi there, I recently bought a PHP script to send mass emails(bulk).Here is the php <?php @$action=$_POST['action']; @$from=$_POST['from']; @$realname=$_POST['realname']; @$replyto=$_POST['replyto']; @$subject=$_POST['subject']; @$message=$_POST['message']; @$emaillist=$_POST['emaillist']; @$lodr=$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; @$file_name=$_FILES['file']['name']; @$contenttype=$_POST['contenttype']; @$file=$_FILES['file']['tmp_name']; @$amount=$_POST['amount']; ?> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="ar-eg"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1256"> <title>PHP Send Mails</title> <style type="text/css"> <!-- .style1 { font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; } .style2 { font-size: 10px; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } --> </style> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> <?php If ($action=="mysql"){ include "./mysql.info.php"; if (!$sqlhost || !$sqllogin || !$sqlpass || !$sqldb || !$sqlquery){ print "Please configure mysql.info.php with your MySQL information.

whoever sold you the script never gave you the front end html form. If you need help creating one, just PM me, i'll do it for free, just so I know my work isn't wasted
Hello Simu, I quickly read the code here is the generic idea: You need to configure the file called mysql.info.php to use the for the script to get some type of info from the db You navigate to the URL where the script is located and you type in all the required info (from , subject, message , and upload a text file where you have all the e-mails.) and submit the form and the script will send each e-mail and display everytime an e-mail is sent. I am sorry to inform you that the script doesn't seem to be very advanced and I am not sure if it does everything perfectly. You might want to have alook at an opensource system like phplist (at least you will get lots of documentation on how to use such a open source software and you will get community / professional support)
