PHPMailer help

Hi all,

I'm desperate to find an answer, if anyone can help. I built a referral page so existing customers of a small motel chain can send coupons to their friends and attract new business. I built it using PHPMailer to email the PDF of the coupon to the recipient. The problem is there appears to (still) be a bug in PHPMailer wherein when I add multiple addresses separated by commas using the $mail->AddAddress function, it won't work, it only works if I use the $mail->AddAddress individually for each email address. Their documentation claims it should work but it doesn't.

So all I'm trying to do is take a string that might have multiple email addresses separated by commas, and have it spit out individual $mail->AddAddress commands for each one so this will work for more than one address at a time. I know this is simple but I can't figure it out to save my life. I came across some ASP code that will do it but cannot figure out how to convert it to PHP. I posted to the PHPMailer forum on Sourceforge back in December but never got any replies.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!!

 

Try:

<?php

$emails = "one@one.com, two@two.com, three@three.com";

$emails = explode(',', $emails);
$emails = array_map('trim', $emails);

foreach ($emails as $email){
    $mail->AddAddress($email);
}
?>

PHP:

 

You're a lifesaver!!! THANK YOU!! That's exactly what I needed!!!!!
YAY!!!

 

PhpMailer takes care of the trim()'ing. And you can skip the foreach too:

$emails = "one@one.com, two@two.com, three@three.com";

array_map(array($mail, 'AddAddress'), explode(',', $emails));

PHP:

 

But my code looks better

Nice one liner though, but to someone reading it, it won't make too much sense. That's the only reason I break my code down

 

Lol, yes yours is clearly more readable.

I was mainly trying to point out that you can use array_map() with class methods too. (I don't like unnecessary loops. )
