Hi All,
Is it possible to implement a mailing list using PHP?. I know I could
maintain a list of emails addresses in a db and send mail to them through my
website, but how can I get true mailing list behaviour where emails are sent
to a particular address (like ma*********@myd omain.com) and then distributed
to all of the email addresses?.

With the php cli/cgi version being called from eg. procmail:
:0:
| foo.php
The incoming mail can be read from php://stdin.

....but you really want to prevent looping and detect bounces otherwise
you're going to be in all sorts of trouble (both can be done from procmail
or in PHP)

Wouldn't a more general purpose language be more suitable for this? I would think a language such as PERL or Python would be better than a web-oriented language. I know there are some excellent modules in the Python standard library for these types of tasks.
That is a myth. I use this class to send more than 2 million mailing
list messages every month. It provides MTA independent means to optimize
its deliveries for bulk mailing. At least one mailing list sends
messages to about 100.000 users every day in just 20 minutes. http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage
I use this other class to fetch the bounced messages and unsubscribe
requests. http://www.phpclasses.org/pop3class

I'm writing a simple mailing list program, and I would like to know
what the suggested method of sending a large number of emails to a list
of addresses. (sounds like spam, no?)
It's perfectly legit, it's just an opt-in mailing.
I have a feeling that using a 'while' loop with repeated calls to
mail() is not the best practice. Is there something better I should be
doing?

There have been a few posts over the last month or so expressing a bit

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
