Send multiple emails from a database using PHP - php

Question

I need help in sending multiple emails from database using PHP. I have a code that work, but it can only allow one email in it. Is there some way to modify it to help me send multiple ones?
<?
require("phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
//Gmail configuration
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl"; // sets the prefix to the server
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$mail->Port = 465; // set the SMTP port for the GMAIL server
$mail->Username = "******#gmail.com"; // GMAIL username
$mail->Password = "785123nick"; // GMAIL password
$prize = "lol";
//End Gmail
$mail->From = "from#email.com";
$mail->FromName = "Jetstar";
$mail->Subject = "Order Redemption";
$mail->MsgHTML("You have bought " . $prize . " Print this and collect it at our office.");
//$mail->AddReplyTo("reply#email.com","reply name"); //They answer here, optional
$mail->AddAddress("your-email","name to");
$mail->IsHTML(true); // send as HTML
if(!$mail->Send()) { //To see if we return a message or a value bolean
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
echo "Message sent!";
?>

Answer 1

Assuming that you would like to send same email to multiple recipients and that your email addresses are stored in a database, you may do something like this:
read email addresses from your database table
loop through the email addresses and pass each email address to $mail->AddAddress();
This way you can add multiple email addresses to your mail object and then send to all.
Hope it helps!

Answer 2

Using phpmailer, you may add multiple recipients simply calling addAddress multiple times...
Obviously, as suggested before, you may want to call this script by mean of a cronjob, thus respecting limits imposed by the mail server.
