PHP srnd two emails

[Pablo]

Hi at all

I call this function when I fill the foot of the body of the email that I'll
send immediately after:

$text.=serial_n umber();

function serial_number()

{

$file="serial.t xt";

for ($try = 0; $try < 5; $try++)

{

$fp = fopen($file, "a+");

if (flock($fp, LOCK_EX)) { // do an exclusive lock

fseek($fp, 0);

$id = fread($fp, 1024);

$id++;

ftruncate($fp, 0);

fwrite($fp, strval($id));

flock($fp, LOCK_UN); // release the lock

break;

}

else

{

sleep(1);

continue;

}

}

fclose($fp);

return $id;

}

The email is sended better and into the last line of the body there is the
new serial number

BUT......... IMMEDIATELY AFTER is sended a second EMPTY email without body
that contain only the serial number (new)

Please where wrong I?

Thank you very much in adbance

try showing us the code that does the emailing, rather than the code
that tries 5 times to add a serial number to the end of a string.

Please how can I understand if the PHP version that work into my web site
support PHPMailer?

And if it do not support PHPMailer what can I do?

Thank you
