Re: Re: Replacing a [TAG] in a Email Template

I figured it out. I just had to reset the template to its original layout by re-opening the template after sending each email.

                 print MAIL $sendthis, "\n";
                 close (MAIL);

open (FILE, "$datadir/sendme.txt") || &error_message("Can't file temp 
+file for sending mail - $datadir/sendme.txt.");
$sendthis = <FILE>;
close(FILE);
                 }
         }

Have a Happy Easter!

Instead of re-reading your template file each time (remember - disk I/O is expensive), read the template once and then manipulate a copy for each email you send. Take a look at the following (very rough code)... `$sendthis = <FILE>; foreach my $mailrecord (@list_of_addresses_and_names_etc) { my $msg = $sendthis; # manipulate the $msg and send }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
