phpMailer - How do you Remove Recipients

email, php, phpmailer

Solution

You can use clearAllRecipients( )

`$mailer->clearAllRecipients( ); // clear all`

Problem

There are a lot of StackOverflow questions on this topic, but I couldn't find one that was able to help with the issue I'm having. The script that I'm writing sends out multiple emails to various recipients with different message contents. I can get this working by re-initializing the `phpMailer` object multiple times, but what I'd like to be able to do is create the object a single time, and then re-assign the following fields: ``` $mail->AddAddress($email); $mail->Subject = $subject; $mail->IsHTML(false); $mail->Body = $message; ``` That way I can just run those four lines of code and then send the mail out, again and again, as many times as necessary. The `Subject`, `IsHTML`, and `Body` fields are easily changed, so the problem I'm having is in the `AddAddress` function. As you can probably guess, after I send out the first email, changing recipients for future emails will result in those stacking onto the current list of recipients. To put it simply, how can I remove the email addresses associated with my `$mail` object so that I can assign them each time while removing the old addresses? Is there another function besides `AddAddress` that I can use that will just assign the addresses?
