There are two problems with CF + pop
1) the connection overhead
2) and cfmail
You can get around cfmail , using cfx_mail or others but you still have
connection overhead. The version of crazy cabs email client that comewith
ColdFusion, caches all the email titles into a sessions, to speed the later
pages, but the page which connects is painfully slow.
The rest of the job is easy.
Are you going to be running this on Linux or NT ?
