During the data phase, $recipients contains a comma separated list of
all the recipients. If you wanted to do an INSERT into an SQL database
at that point for each individual recipient, you could use a stored
function and loop over each address via the comma delimiter inside that
function. Another alternative would be to copy $recipients into an acl
variable and then use a recursive acl which pops off the top address,
inserts, and then calls it's self. As long as you take into account
recursion limits.
