not receiving emails expected

[davjoh]

The following describes the problem I am having. Can anyone help?

$send_to[] = "da*******@yaho o.com";
$send_to[] = "pr********@adv isiongraphics.c om";
$send_to[] = "ad************ **@mac.com";


// send email
foreach ($send_to as $dest)

mail($dest,$ema il_subject,$mes sage,$header); //This line NOT
working
//expecting it to send email to all the above addresses assigned to
$send_to[] array. Is it because values have not been added to $dest
and if so how to do

mail($r["email"],$email_subject ,$message,$head er); //This line
working

Nope, but you haven't told us enough about your problem. For instance,
what's the response from the mail() call? What's in $header?

Are you suer it isn't going into a spam black hole somewhere? Are you
trying to send too many emails too quickly, and therefore upsetting your
MTA?

Not sure what you mean by response to mail() call.

mail() is a function call. It has a return code indicating whether the
email was passed on to your MTA or not.

What's that response?

The first step is to see if it even made it to the mta.

And don't try to fool with html to start. Get it to work with plain
text, first.

And when you do send html email, you should always have a plain text
mime type for those who have text email readers (or choose to disable
html email).

Also, some spam filters will block email which has just html.

The php.ini file needed 'short tags on' enabled to read the
array correctly.

No, short tags has nothing to do with reading arrays. And nothing

Also, you should not be depending on short_tags being on. Even Zend
talks about that.

It could. But more importantly, where is the data coming from? and
what does it look like there?

And when dealing with objects and arrays, it's generally better to do
something like:

echo "<pre>\n";
print_r ($var);
echo "</pre>\n";
