I have a client who regularly does a 4k- to 5k-recipient mailing list and it works fine. I'd never even know she was doing it if I wasn't on her mailing list myself. At your size you probably won't have to deal with this, but if it gets too much bigger, you ought to throttle the mail down if you are mailing to AOL and msn users. They've recently begun putting up short term blocks when they sense a lot of mail piling in from one sender. Not sure what the trigger point is, but it can play havoc with a mailing.

You should be fine. I have sent over 1K with no problem. Some folks try to send several K and wonder why it chokes. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony Weeg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2003 9:48 PM Subject: RE: cfmail query= vs using cfloop > yeah, i know, but for a small mailing list, of women who sign up > to a curves for women mailing list, like 1-200 maybe...it shouldnt > choke? > > tony > > -----Original Message----- > From: Bruce Sorge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2003 10:46 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Re: cfmail query= vs using cfloop > > > My experience shows that there really is no noticeable difference in the > two.
