Iterate array then reset again multiple array - php

Question

I want to iterate array then It should be reset again in PHP .
The following logic I want to implement
I have an array of smtp and a second array from which I just want to send
email once per smtp .
Actually I have a list of array for which I want to send email but I have
few smtp hosts .
I am iterating a list of array in foreach loop.
I have a smtp array in which I have defined certain limit to send email.
function sendmail_test(){
return "Sent<br/>";
}
$email_arrays=array(
'test1#gmail.com',
'test2#gmail.com',
'test3#gmail.com',
'test4#gmail.com',
'test5#gmail.com',
'test6#gmail.com',
);
$smtp_array=array(
'gmail_smtp#gmailsmtp.com'=>10,
'yogya_smtp#yogyasmtp.com'=>15
);
$smtp_count=count($smtp_array);
$smtp_counter=0;
for($i=0;$i<=$smtp_count;$i++){
foreach($email_arrays as $ek=>$ev){
print_r($smtp_counter);
echo sendmail_test();
}
$smtp_counter++;
}
Actually I want exactly like this.
I have currently have two smtp in $smtp_array
First email should be fired by like this smtp
test1#gmail.com - >'gmail_smtp#gmailsmtp.com'
And second email should be fired by like this
test2#gmail.com',->'yogya_smtp#yogyasmtp.com'
and then third email should be fired like this
test3#gmail.com - >'gmail_smtp#gmailsmtp.com'
which Is then reset and will use first smtp in $smtp_array ..
I hope you will get my point now.

If you want to go though all the smtp servers and reset to the start when you had the last one, you might use current, end, reset, and next.
To get the value for the smtp, you could use key You can then add an smtp server to the list as well.
For example:
function sendmail_test()
{
return "Sent<br/>";
}
$email_arrays = array(
'test1#gmail.com',
'test2#gmail.com',
'test3#gmail.com',
'test4#gmail.com',
'test5#gmail.com',
'test6#gmail.com',
);
$smtp_array = array(
'gmail_smtp#gmailsmtp.com' => 10,
'yogya_smtp#yogyasmtp.com' => 15
);
$lastElement = end($smtp_array);
reset($smtp_array);
foreach ($email_arrays as $em) {
$current = current($smtp_array);
//sendmail_test();
echo "Send email $em with smtp: " . key($smtp_array) . PHP_EOL;
next($smtp_array);
if ($lastElement === $current) {
reset($smtp_array);
}
}
Result:
Send email test1#gmail.com with smtp: gmail_smtp#gmailsmtp.com
Send email test2#gmail.com with smtp: yogya_smtp#yogyasmtp.com
Send email test3#gmail.com with smtp: gmail_smtp#gmailsmtp.com
Send email test4#gmail.com with smtp: yogya_smtp#yogyasmtp.com
Send email test5#gmail.com with smtp: gmail_smtp#gmailsmtp.com
Send email test6#gmail.com with smtp: yogya_smtp#yogyasmtp.com

You can approach this as following
$hosts = array_keys($smtp_array);
foreach($email_arrays as $k => $v){
$email = $v;
$host = $hosts[$k%2];
echo $email.'----'.$host;echo '<br/>';// use $email and $host to send the email
}
