php mail duplicates

Question

Is there any reason why this would send duplicate emails? I have a PHP page with only this code on it and every time I run it it sends me two emails.

Answer 1

Maybe your page loads twice, therefore executes the code two times...You could try some limitation, something like that

if ($sent == '0') {
  mail("abc@def.ghi", "test", "test");
  $sent = 1;
} 

Is this a simple php page, or part of a CMS? Maybe some modules might interfere with your page...
