No. Is that the standard?

I am using this in a "listening" script that is triggered by receiving a
notice from PayPal. The PayPal information supplies the variables for
the mail function, including the customer's email address. Based on the
transaction type a different message is composed. There are about 10
different messages of differing content and formatting.

That is difficult to test repeatedly so I turned to this group. If you
think that is misguided, then pass on responding.
