Another way to verify the mail server is responding (in CF5 anyway) is to
use the undocumented CFusion_VerifyMail function. All the usual warnings
when using undocumented features apply here--it may go away, not function,
is not supported, etc. I wouldn't base production code on it, but it's an
option. Use it like this:
<CFSET Msg = CFusion_VerifyMail('127.0.0.1',25,60)>
<CFIF Len(Msg)>
Mail server error! <CFOUTPUT>#Msg#</CFOUTPUT>
<CFELSE>
Mail server OK
</CFIF>
