If you are sending 10k emails then you are hoping that 10 processes run properly, rather than one. I see that as a tenfold increase in potential points of failure. Sure you can add a 'Stage X complete' email at the end of each send process but that doesn't address the problem, or help solve it... only create the ability to spot a problem with your solution. And what happens when you need to send 11,000? Or 10,001? You need to create a scheduled 11th process. And then a 12th. That means you either have to babysit your maillist count so you can manually add another task or write in code that divides the total list by 10 and run only group 1 of 10, 2 of 10 etc. Which is also not scaleable since you will, sooner or later, exceed whatever your max batch size is (and leading up to that you will watch performance decrease since you haven't addressed the root problem) and have to create Schedule Item 11, then 12 and so on. Just some stuff that came immediately to mind. If you have mail capacity o connection issues I recommend ou address them directly. CF shouldn't be the problem. -- [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:251906 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
