Redd,
1. 40 is indeed the limit in the to fields. - (Best to do a cfloop over your list
of names)
2. The proper format is a described below. (CF Hosting does not require SMTP server
address in code)
<CFMAIL
TO="#username# <useremail#>"
FROM="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Subject="I must include a subject line"
>
You should also do some error checking in front of the emails to insure the address is
formated correctly. Bad address formats mean NO DELIVERY.
Try this snippit
<CFIF NOT Len(Trim(Form.Email))
OR Len(ReReplace(Form.Email,
"^[A-Za-z0-9_\.\-]+@[A-Za-z0-9\.\-]+\.[A-Za-z]{2,}$", "", "ALL"))>
<P>
BAD EMAIL ADDRESS FORMAT!
Please go back and correct it.<BR>
<FORM>
<INPUT TYPE=BUTTON VALUE="Go Back" onClick="history.back()">
</FORM>
<CFABORT>
</CFIF>
As far as large amounts of CFMAIL go I must say the best configuration possible for
the maximum output and reliability of CFMAIL is to point things to a secondary server
running UNIX with Exim configured for security of SMTP mail.
You do not want to run CF IIS and Mail on the same server. This is taboo in our
experience. Even with the most brasin of servers you do not want to rob CF of ANY cpu
or memory resources available on the server. This becomes directly noticable in PID
execution times. Many NT based SMTP servers have a pretty large footprint and can
seriously effect performace.
In a shared hosting enviorment we ask that our customers keep CFMAIL list sizes below
2500 per hour during peak internet usage hours 10am EST - 8pm EST. Even with a good
mail server you do not want to dump to many CFMAILs into the spool folder all at once,
particularly when you are running on a shared server. Remember to be nice to your
neighbors. Large list will be better recieved by the server late in the evening. And
those
looking for imidiate responses to web forms will get quicker results if the spool
folder is kept light.
F.Y.I.
Any application dependant on large amounts, (7,500k+ per day) of CFMAIL should have
one thing in mind. Dedicated Hardware. You don't want your "Shared Server" neighbors
hammering your resources.
