Iterate array then reset again multiple array

Question

I want to iterate array then It should be reset again in PHP . The following logic I want to implement

I have an array of smtp and a second array from which I just want to send email once per smtp . Actually I have a list of array for which I want to send email but I have few smtp hosts . I am iterating a list of array in foreach loop. I have a smtp array in which I have defined certain limit to send email.

function sendmail_test(){
   return "Sent<br/>";
}

$email_arrays=array(
   '[email protected]',
   '[email protected]',
   '[email protected]',
   '[email protected]',
   '[email protected]',
   '[email protected]',
);

$smtp_array=array(
   '[email protected]'=>10,
   '[email protected]'=>15
);


$smtp_count=count($smtp_array);
$smtp_counter=0;
for($i=0;$i<=$smtp_count;$i++){       

   foreach($email_arrays as $ek=>$ev){
        print_r($smtp_counter);
        echo sendmail_test();
    }
    $smtp_counter++;
}

Actually I want exactly like this. I have currently have two smtp in $smtp_array

First email should be fired by like this smtp [email protected] - >'[email protected]'

And second email should be fired by like this [email protected]',->'[email protected]'

and then third email should be fired like this [email protected] - >'[email protected]'

which Is then reset and will use first smtp in $smtp_array .. I hope you will get my point now.

your question is still unclear can you give us more details or where you are stuck now? — M.Hemant

Is there a problem with the code you've posted? You state what you want but not the problem you are having. — Nigel Ren

Also $smtp_count is 2 and in the loop you check $i=0;$i<=$smtp_count which will loop 3 times for 0, 1 and 2. Is that intended? — The fourth bird

If you want to go though all the smtp servers and reset to the start when you had the last one, you might use current, end, reset, and next.

To get the value for the smtp, you could use key You can then add an smtp server to the list as well.

For example:

function sendmail_test()
{
    return "Sent<br/>";
}

$email_arrays = array(
    '[email protected]',
    '[email protected]',
    '[email protected]',
    '[email protected]',
    '[email protected]',
    '[email protected]',
);

$smtp_array = array(
    '[email protected]' => 10,
    '[email protected]' => 15
);

$lastElement = end($smtp_array);
reset($smtp_array);

foreach ($email_arrays as $em) {
    $current = current($smtp_array);
    //sendmail_test();
    echo "Send email $em with smtp: " . key($smtp_array) . PHP_EOL;
    next($smtp_array);

    if ($lastElement === $current) {
        reset($smtp_array);
    }
}

Result:

Send email [email protected] with smtp: [email protected]
Send email [email protected] with smtp: [email protected]
Send email [email protected] with smtp: [email protected]
Send email [email protected] with smtp: [email protected]
Send email [email protected] with smtp: [email protected]
Send email [email protected] with smtp: [email protected]

You can approach this as following

$hosts = array_keys($smtp_array);
foreach($email_arrays as $k => $v){
  $email = $v;
  $host  = $hosts[$k%2];
  echo $email.'----'.$host;echo '<br/>';// use $email and $host to send the email
}
