Have you ever wanted to import the emails from your site to your outlook. Like if you are running a newsletter and want to use outlook to send the letter. Here is an easy way to export all emails into outlook:
Create a php file with this:
Edit USERNAME, PASSWORD, DATABASE and FIELD (// create query
$query = "SELECT * FROM FIELD".
ALSO:
change the 0 to the row with the emails. If the row with emails is row 3 (example), change the 0 to a 4. 0 is the first row, 1 is the second, 2 is the third and so on
this is gonna echo a list like this
mail@mail.tld;
mail2@mail2.tld;
/.../
Copy this into a text document.
Now open outlook and choose import>other adressbook.
Then choose "textdocument".
Done!
I am pretty sure this will work because it worked for me.
Create a php file with this:
PHP:
<?php
// set database server access variables:
$host = "localhost";
$user = "USERNAME";
$pass = "PASSWORD";
$db = "DATABASE";
// open connection
$connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die ("Unable to connect!");
// select database
mysql_select_db($db) or die ("Unable to select database!");
// create query
$query = "SELECT * FROM FIELD";
// execute query
$result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Error in query: $query. ".mysql_error());
// see if any rows were returned
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
// yes
// print them one after another
while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {
echo "".$row[0].";<br />";
}
}
else {
// no
// print status message
echo "No rows found!";
}
// free result set memory
mysql_free_result($result);
// close connection
mysql_close($connection);
?>
Edit USERNAME, PASSWORD, DATABASE and FIELD (// create query
$query = "SELECT * FROM FIELD".
ALSO:
PHP:
echo "".$row[0].";<br />";
this is gonna echo a list like this
mail@mail.tld;
mail2@mail2.tld;
/.../
Copy this into a text document.
Now open outlook and choose import>other adressbook.
Then choose "textdocument".
