Alright, this may take a moment or two
to explain:
I'm working on creating an Email<SMS Bridge (like Teleflip). I have a few set parameters
to work in:
Dreamhost Webhosting
PHP 5 (without PEAR)
Postfix
What I have right now, is a catch-all email address that forwards the email sent
to a shell account. The shell account in turn forwards it
to my PHP script.
The PHP script reads it, strips a few Email Headers in an effort
to make sure it sends properly, then forwards it
to the
number specified as the recipient.
[email protected] of course sends an SMS
to +1 (555) 123-4567.
This works really well, as I am parsing the
To field and grabbing just the email address it is sending
to. However, what I realized that I did not account for is multiple recipients. For example, an email sent
to both 5551234567 and 1235554567 (using the
To line, the CC line, or any combination of those).
The way email works of course, is I get two emails received, end up parsing each of them separately, and 5551234567 ends up getting the same message twice.
What is the best way
to handle this situation, so that each
number specified in
TO and CC can get one copy of the message.
In addition, though I doubt its possible: Is there a way
to handle BCC the same way?
