OK, what this thing a magic does is simple. It gets email ids from a file and sends a newsletter that you've created to all the email ids. Look below for more inf

You should step through the list of emails. If the file size is quite big, then you are going to have a high memory overhead. You may also want to look at maximum execution time.
Try using file_get_contents() for the newsletter rather than implode("",file($filename)). If its possible your system doesnt have it use:-
if (!function_exists(`file_get_contents`))
{
function file_get_contents($filename, $use_include_path = 0)
{
$file = @fopen($filename, `rb`, $use_include_path);
if ($file)
{
if ($fsize = @filesize($filename))
{
$data = fread($file, $fsize);
}
else
{
while (!feof($file))
{
$data .= fread($file, 1024);
}
}
fclose($file);
}
return $data;
}
}
Things to add maybe:-
Add/remove email address
Validate email address before sending
Option to send many emails via BCC, which would speed it up, but may be rejected by spam filters.
