Hi all.<br><br>I am using sendmail with a script that needs to send one mail to a person but also cc two others and bcc one other.&nbsp;&nbsp;Is it possible to add extra recipients to a message?&nbsp;&nbsp;And how?<br><br>Thanks. <p>fortytwo<br><a href=mailto:will@hellacool.co.uk>will@hellacool.co.uk</a><br><a href= test site</a><br>
 
I have not had time to figure out how, but, the man pages for sendmail refer to 'addresses' in the plural, not singular.&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't have time right now to play, but a little command line experimentation could probably identify an appropriate delimiter so that you just give sendmail a list of recipients rather than just one.&nbsp;&nbsp;If I don't beat you to it, I'll try to remember to do a little playing with this when I get a chance. <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br> keep the rudder amid ship and beware the odd typo
 
Thanks goBoating,&nbsp;&nbsp;I will play around with some delimiters but I am accessing a hosted account so do not have access to man pages :(<br><br>Will. <p>fortytwo<br><a href=mailto:will@hellacool.co.uk>will@hellacool.co.uk</a><br><a href= test site</a><br>
