I’d suggest not using Sendmail directly, but instead using a module like MIME::Lite::TT or MIME::Lite::TT::HTML for lots of various reasons.

I put together a small howto for using those modules at:

thanks for the perl code… It really helped me a lot. After experimenting on at least a dozen codes and techniques, your code, though simple as it is, made my routine work… Thanks again

Vipin

I believe you just have add multiple emails with comma at the end of each address.

$to = “,address2,address3,…..”

this should work great, but i am having trouble finding any email servers that would offer a cgi-bin for you to access…

could you recommend any?

This scripts is OK if you just need test how things work. If you need to send mails to a lot of people, then you need to look at many other aspects (correct headers, spf records etc.) so that your domain or IP does not end up in e-mail black lists.

If you are a webmaster and plan to send large number of e-mails from scripts, you need to do a bit of a home work.
