pro_php thread: Mailing List Managers & mail()

I did just that: I installed a dedicated email listserver to handle
the discussion lists on my server - as pointed out these programmes
are specially written to handle large numbers of email messages (I'm
using majordomo2, http://www.math.uh.edu/majordomo/) and I use that to
send large quantities of email when necessary. A web interface is easy
to build using php to interact with majordomo through the usual email
commands that majordomo uses. It seems to work very well, and leaves
PHP to do what it's good at.

The BCC approach does sound like a useful discovery though...

Fair enough, but this was written in the rather complex & (to a certain 
extent) cumbersome Perl - not in PHP!

Also, it's true to say that the Bcc does not allow 'unsubscribe' links, 
but you could use a web-interface unsubscriber instead!
