Adam,

Good idea. Any ideas for a way around the waiting while the thousands of
emails are sent by a user?  Or are yours done through a scheduled task?
Also, any idea on performace issues etc with doing it as <cfmail
query=""> vs. <cfoutput query=""><cfmail></cfoutput>?  I'm guessing the
first is better but I'd be interested to hear of any other information.

John, currently we have CF sending out 20k+ emails per day. (Usually
within a one hour timeframe). The setup I inherited is all on one box.
The site shows delayed responses during this mailing, however it's not
too bad. I think the majority of the spped issues have to with bad
coding.

I'm currently working on a new setup whereas the emails will be sent
from a CFserver dedicated to email only.
