Makes sense why you need it to send faster. I know that CF4.5 was slow, 5 was faster and MX/6.1 much faster in the email area. Sadly, I think 6.1 still has some problems with email from a stability point of view, but it can be made quite fast. Check the mail threads setting in CF. That may help, may be set to 3 or some such. If its a constant 12/minute it may not be anything lame like defragging the hard drive. Have you looked into your ISP? If you aren't running your own mail server maybe your ISP is limiting the throughput for spam control reasons. In fact, maybe your smtp/mail server has a setting that limits throughput out. Either way, 12/minute is WAY slower than it should be, even in 4.5. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:184672 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
