How do you send the same email to multiple recipients with Sendmail us

[lisali]

I have the following PERL script, but I can't seem to get it to send to more than one email at once. How do I send to multiple emails within the same script, preferably as separate emails, CC, BCC or just an additional TO:?

Thank you! :)

open(SENDMAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -t") || die "Cannot open sendmail output";

print SENDMAIL <<"ENDENDEND";
From: <test\@test.com>
To: <test1\@test1.com>
Subject: report spam
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
 boundary="DeathToSpamDeathToSpamDeathToSpam"

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
--DeathToSpamDeathToSpamDeathToSpam
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit


--DeathToSpamDeathToSpamDeathToSpam
Content-Type: message/rfc822
Content-Disposition: attachment

ENDENDEND

while (<STDIN>) {
  print SENDMAIL ;
}


print SENDMAIL <<"ENDENDEND";

--DeathToSpamDeathToSpamDeathToSpam--
ENDENDEND

close (SENDMAIL);

Hi lisali welcome to WebmasterWorld [webmasterworld.com]

It's sometimes a little slow here on weekends, but someone helpful should come along soon.

[phranque]

did you try adding a Cc: header to your sendmail input?

you might want to consider using a perl library such as Email::Sender:

Hi @keyplyr - thanks for the lovely welcome!

@phranque That seems to work, many thanks! For some reason, using Bcc: or adding another To: email does NOT work, but Cc: seems to do it.

Many thanks for your help, I really appreciate it! :)

When you add the To: separate the emails with a comma.
[e-mail],[e-mail],[e-mail]

Same with bcc.

$mailprog = "/usr/sbin/sendmail";
$message= "hi there";
$Subject= "Test ye old test";
open(MAIL, "|$mailprog -t");
print MAIL "To: sam\@iam.com\n";
print MAIL "bcc: jim\@example.com\n";
print MAIL "From: Test\@webmasterworld.com\n";
print MAIL "Subject: $subject\n\n";
print MAIL "$message";
close(MAIL);
