Bob,
Is set_time_limit() what you are looking for? timeout() is not a function.
The best was would seem to basically sent the email out to multiples at
once as you can do that if you interface with the mailer itself.
Then what you might think about doing is looping and increasing the
timeout per each item ex:
while(list($key, $val) = each($emails)) {
set_time_limit(3); //give it 3 seconds per each email
mail(....);
}
You could try set_time_limit(0) but I wouldn't recommend that as if you
have something caught in a loop somewhere and it is just hanging you
might as well let it terminate.
