Well yeah it sounds difficult at the beginning, but if you have time to
study it a little bit this approach can be quite useful in your future
projects (<no_flames_please>in some cases, in my opinion, it could be a
much better solution than Flash...</no_flames_please>)
Anyway, thinking about your current approach I guess it would be better
of you let a background process (triggered by the user input or
scheduled with cron - you can use free ones on the net, like
http://hostedcron.com (never used it, thou)) do the mailing: what if
your user hits 'Reload' while the script is sending the emails? All the
emails get re-sent? Or if it hits the 'Stop' button?
