Has anyone ever heard of SMTP Express??? If you did a search on those words
you can find the web site where its at, sorry cant remember the URL.
Basically its an add-on to an existing mail server, not a replacement to
one. Its essentially made just for Bulk mail purposes. It queues up all
messages to go out & can send out 1,000 (or more) mesages a second. The
secret to how this is done, is that it puts all the stress of sending out
the emails on that domains web server. To be even more clearer Ill use an
example:
If you have emails going out to hotmail.com, houseoffusion.com, yahoo.com &
microsoft.com its going to send the emails to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] through hotmails SMTP server, its going to
send the emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] through
houseoffusions SMTP server, so on & so forth.
It also comes with a custom COM object that is made especially for SMTP
Express, that has example CFML code documented with it. Unlike most mail
servers you cant really determine if the mail wuz sent successfully or not.
With this product & the COM object you can!!!
I am in no way affiliated with this product but I thought it wuz definantly
worth the exposure for this topic.
Sincerely,
Mike
