Zero Byte mail still is a problem. You must build in error traps to catch these before adding them to the mail queue. As for throughput, your bandwidth is going to play a large part in transmitting that much email volume. Secondary will be the mail server capabilities.

I've done some researching out of the archives and noted that using a different mail server and writing emails via CFFILE was a solution suggested by serveral people. I understand that CFMAIL is based on the JAVA API. | | We would like to achieve a throughput of 10-15 k messages per hour. We can upgrade to MX. It will be a dedicated machine (probably a PIII but not certain of which machine will be rebuilt with MX at this time). I tried finding some performance info at the Macromedia site on the MX mail tag but didnt run across anything. | | What is CFMX capable of straight out of the box in regards to CFMAIL - ie could it achieve my desired throughput? Does the zero-byte email problem still exist in CFMX? | | Thanks in advance. | | | Lonny Eckert | Mi Services Group, Inc. | Work Phone: 610-230-2500 x147 | E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.mi-services.com <http://www.mi-services.com/> | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
