Sending multiple email from codeigniter

Question

Hi friends i am creating newsletter in codeigniter. Is there a way to send multiple email with CI email lib or should i use third party ?

Answer 1

Using the Email Class, something like:

foreach ($list as $name => $address)
{
    $this->email->clear();

    $this->email->to($address);
    $this->email->from('[email protected]');
    $this->email->subject('Here is your info '.$name);
    $this->email->message('Hi '.$name.' Here is the info you requested.');
    $this->email->send();
}

would work. (Straight from the docs). It depends on how many addresses you have, and any constraints such as server/mail queue processing/script time out etc

I'm not personally aware of a 3rd party CI newsletter plugin/library but i haven't looked too hard.
