Answer 1

I had a similar issue while trying to loop though my recipients' database table with the aim of sending personalized PEAR emails to each recipient.

The problem I encountered was that the loop would cease after one iteration until I amended $recipients to just send the first item in the array, as illustrated in this code snippet. ($recipients is an array of IDs for recipients):

/*PEAR mail set-up code included here*/

for ($i = 0; $i < count($recipients); $i++) {

$sql_recipients = "SELECT * FROM $data_table WHERE id = $recipients[$i] ORDER BY id  ASC ";
$res_recipients = mysqli_query($mysqli,$sql_recipients)
or die (mysqli_error($mysqli));

$recipients_info = mysqli_fetch_array($res_recipients);
$recip_id = $recipients_info['id'];
$recip_organisation = $recipients_info['organisation'];
$recip_fname = $recipients_info['fname'];
$recip_lname = $recipients_info['lname'];
$recip_email = $recipients_info['email'];

/*PEAR mail code here */

$recipients[0] = $recip_email;

$mail->send($recipients[0], $hdrs, $body);

}
