Thanks Karthick (and all others who have contributed suggestions). Although I don't fully understnad the syntax, I'll have a go at this tomorrow (when I get some energy back!). But what really confuses me is why I still get the spacey error when I hard code all of the sendmail data. And yet it looks OK when I send it to the screen with the "pre" tag (BTW, what IS a "pre" tag?) Phew!

Hi, I have used dtml-sendmail with multiple To: addresses,fetched from the database without any problems. After you fetch the email Object list from the data Base, convert the object List into a list of strings and join the list with commas.Then use the dtml-sendmail tag to send the mail. You can do this,assuming your sql_query returns a list of Emails. Assuming that your query is called sql_get_emails,and it contains a field called email,do this, <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('mylist',[])"> <dtml-in sql_get_emails> <dtml-call "mylist.append(email)"> </dtml-in> <dtml-let mailString="_.string.join(mylist,',')" > Now use this mailString to send the mail. I do this,after fetching mailString, <dtml-sendmail smtphost="mail.pepco.no"> To: <dtml-var mailString> From: <dtml-var from> Subject: <dtml-var subject> <dtml-var body> </dtml-sendmail> </dtml-let> I hope that you dont get frustrated after this.
