I received an html email today with a stock photo of a cab door. On the cab door was a personalized greeting with my bosses name. This email was clearly sent using listserv of some sort. Can I write a PHP function that will achieve this?

I look forward to hearing from all!

Well, you can modify an image using PHP's GD functions
[a href=\"http://www.php.net/gd\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.php.net/gd[/a]
[/quote]

OK, so I should be able to send one dynamic e-mail to let's say 300 recipiants and the php code will be able to read the resipiants first name, and then display an image that reads "hello mike," or "hello pat,", etc.?

Well, for that you can embed a variable into the link, like:
[a href=\"http://www.example.com/card.php?recipient=mike\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.example.com/card.php?recipient=mike[/a]

Then use something like:
$text = 'Hello, ' . $_GET['recipient'];
