I was compiling a list of People Whose UserInfo Got %@#$ed Up and decided it would be really useful to have a multi-delivery Private Message feature. This didn't previously exist so I wrote it.
The separator is a comma ( , ) so for example if you wrote
tim, trevor, rrradam
into the Recipient Username(s): field it would go to the three of us. I hacked in some rudimentary checks for uniqueness, but you can probably send multiples if you try hard enough.
If you've been having trouble with your account, please send me a PM. I'm trying to take care of all the database issues in one shot, and since it's about 5 days' worth of users (potentially), that could be quite a few. I have about 20 names right now.
Also, rc.com is probably going to require unique email addresses from now on. So, if you have more than one user name registered against an email address, start thinking about which one you would most like to keep, because given the recent rash of scam attempts, we're not inclined to put up with multiple bogus accounts anymore. Plus it will make fixing the database a lot easier. Thanks,
--tim

Tim,
to fix the uniqueness issue, try the following:
Code:
$list = split(",[ ]*", $arg_from_form_field);
foreach($list as $user) {
$rcpt[$user] = 1;
}
Then you can do:
Code:
while(list($sendtouser, $val) = each($rcpt) {
send_pm_to($sendtouser);
}
.. and the list of recipients will be unique, based on what you sent in.
Now, you could do strtolower() on all this, to guarantee uniqueness (since hash keys are case sensitive) - but that breaks, because you gave Lox a uppercase name..
- d.
