On CF9, cfmail seems to be having a problem sending email to some of the
newer address, like som...@sprucegrove.ca .
This is a valid email address, but CF9 CFMAIL is chocking on this and a other
valid addresses that use the newer two
character TLDs.
If I try to send to that address,
CF will try to send an email to any address you give it, even a complete
nonsense address, it is the SMTP server that will reject it. I have never
had any issues sending emails to 2 letter TLD's such as .co or .ca
So you should firstly investigate DNS and SMTP issues

Found a setting in MDaemon that restricted the maximum concurrent
incoming connections. Since CF was set to 30 threads and we have 3
isntances, and MDaemon set to only accept 50 incoming connections,
that was PROBABLY causing the issue.
Thanks all.

Is your mail server on the same machine as CF? Check it's running.
It probably has nothing to do with being in a CFC. Create a simple cfm page
to test it.
