Len,
I'll be connecting CFMAIL to L-Soft's LSMTP. I've tested LSMTP to send
over 80,000 messages an hour, but not with mail coming from CF. I haven't
had an opportunity to test how fast CFMAIL can feed LSMTP the messages.
Setting up a couple of mail boxes to receive 100,000 messages is a bit of
work, so I don't want to duplicate effort if I don't have to.
A rough approximation to the nearest 10k/hour is close enough. Anybody?

If CFMAIL's outgoing volume is insufficient, I would recommend having
CFMail's SMTP client dump all outgoing mail on a local ip (no DNS lookups
by CFMAIL) where a mail gateway running an efficient and reliable MTA like
postfix would do the dirty work of actually delivering the mail.
Asking a production CF server, I assume it's doing lots of other CF
applications, to do volume mail delivery seems to be counterproductive and
is certainly unnecessary.
