Hi All,

simple question:  
How do I send mail to multiple recipients using the mail function with php?

I have a page that successfully sends mail to one recipient, but I’d like to send it to multiple recipients (as bcc so they don’t see each other). Using semilcolons in the recipient variable doesn’t work i.e.

```php

$recipient = "one@address.com; two@address.com; three@address.com";

```

Thanks for your time  
C
