wp_mail: An array as $to – multiple emails or single email with all the email ids in it?

If I will use an array of email IDs for $to parameter of wp_mail function, will it send different emails to all those email ids or will send one email with all the email ids as ‘to’?

  1. Yes, you can use an array of recipients:

     * @param string|array $to Array or comma-separated list of email addresses to send message.
 * @param string $subject Email subject
 * @param string $message Message contents
 * @param string|array $headers Optional. Additional headers.
 * @param string|array $attachments Optional. Files to attach.
 * @return bool Whether the email contents were sent successfully.
 */
function wp_mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers = '', $attachments = array() ) {

// …


    // Set destination addresses
    if ( !is_array( $to ) )
        $to = explode( ',', $to );

    foreach ( (array) $to as $recipient ) {
        try {
            // Break $recipient into name and address parts if in the format "Foo <bar@baz.com>"
            $recipient_name = '';
            if( preg_match( '/(.*)<(.+)>/', $recipient, $matches ) ) {
                if ( count( $matches ) == 3 ) {
                    $recipient_name = $matches[1];
                    $recipient = $matches[2];
                }
            }
            $phpmailer->AddAddress( $recipient, $recipient_name);
        } catch ( phpmailerException $e ) {
            continue;
        }
    }

    To send different emails, you have to call wp_mail() multiple times.
