About personal data fields

It is important that the number of elements indicated for each "campo<nn>" parameter corresponds to the number of addresses in the "recipients" parameter.
E.g. the message must be sent to three email addresses: recipients=johnsmith@example.com;pauljohnson@example.com;anntaylor@example.com
If name and surname are specified in campo1 and campo2, they will have to be detailed as follows:
campo1=John;Paul;Ann
campo2=Smith;Johnson;Taylor
In case of empty personal data fields, the number of elements must always be the same; in the example below, there are no personal data associated to the second email address:
campo1=John;;Ann
campo2=Smith;;Taylor
