Jay, I understand your situation. We simply installed it onto the webserver (this client has a co-lo with us). They run over 6 million hits and about 9 GB transfer per month. iMS-SE was installed about 8 months ago and the site and mail server have run flawlessly.
Another aspect to consider is support. They have their own mailing list (as well as participate on this one). Join their mail list and post some questions - you may be pleased with the responses. Anyway, glad to offer my .02 Tony Gruen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Jason Miller [mailto:millerj@;etcnj.com] Sent: Monday, October 21, 2002 1:55 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: cfmail tag and looping output I have checked that site quite a bit - Problem is - I am not a network or server administrator - don't plan on it nor wish to be one. The solution is on our own server - but is co-located - I am always nervous installing products that I feel may effect the server. IF i need support of the host company - point blank a bad implmeentation or poor decision from me results in a $ loss. Very well can't charge my client for support on my own error :) I am the only one who administers the site, upgrades the server, the graphics, commerce back end - daily updates and all the cf code - so -therein lies hesitation installing and dealing with another product. Anyhow - I will be looking into iMS-SE since it's not the first time it's name popped up. Some great ideas on this. Glad to receive so many replies. thanks jay SFN Development wrote: >iMS-SE ALL_THE_WAY. We have a client that sends 20,000 + emails day via >their web admin for their site (they post jobs).
