Mailing Multiple reciepients

[powahusr]

My web host switched from QMAIL to Sendmail. I'm unfamiliar with "Sendmail" parameters, how do you use CC with Sendmail?

Bellow is a segment of an email script in my cgi script. The value of Variable "email2" comes from a form. That email address does not receive an email when the script executes, only "email1" receives mail. What is the correct way to distribute mail to both addresses?


print MAIL "To: $in{'email1'}, $in{'email2'}\n";
print MAIL "Reply-To:\n";
print MAIL "From: $in{'email1'}\n";
print MAIL "Subject: Foo\n\n";


Thanks in advance!!!

You may want to create a group in the /etc/alias file:

Format =

group1: user1, user2

When group1 receives an email, sendmail distributes it to user1 and user2.

After making changes in your /etc/aliases file you must type newaliases.
