NYCPHP Meetup

[David Mintz]

Planning to roll my own MySQL/PHP-based mass emailer. Why? Because the
recipient list isn't a semi-static, monolithic thing. The admin user needs
to be able to select subsets of people/addresses from a database based on
various criteria.  (This is your chance to point me to an existing (free)
tool that can do or be adapted to do this -- I haven't found any.)

So here's my (first) question:  What constitutes a well-formed HTML email
body? Is there a "right" way -- other than getting the MIME headers right?
I would assume that your email body should be just like the BODY element
of any valid HTML document -- a regular HTML document minus the HEAD
element.

Hopefully I can make this a well-made and abstract enough beast to merit
sharing once it's done.

Thanks!
