(Kinda like GMail and stuff like that?) You can create a DIV in your page that contains the *output* (maybe an image with the width set to the percentage of mails sent): the content of this DIV is updated by another script (the one that sends the email) that gets called (via JavaScript) at specific intervals with a specific query (in your case, the messages to send). This way your main page never gets reloaded and you see a nice progress bar in your DIV. I know it sounds a bit difficult, but it's a cool "technology" and after the initial difficulties it can be really useful. As a start, have a read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX HTH, cheers!
