If you're on a shared server you could have resource issues. In no event should you ever pile in multiple mail addressees into the To field.
Send everything as a discrete message and throttle down the mail. I would say 20k is the outside of the envelope for conveniently doing this but I have clients who do it regularly. Do a decent throttle speed and no one -- including spam frequency filters who can get the wrong idea from your 20k email blast -- will notice you. 20 every 10 seconds would trickle the list out in less than 3 hours. I would do 10 every 10 and just run it overnight. http://mysecretbase.com/Slowing_Down_CFMail_2004.cfm Its about time I did a 2006 version that also incorporates try/catch to collect individual bad email addresses (i.e. badly formatted) and let the routine continue if it finds any. I've got it running like that in my CMS' mass mailer component. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:248680 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
