It does the job as a basic SMTP server for sending mail via websites. If you want any kind of decent logging though you had better use something else. What we do is use it as a smart host to a proper SMTP server, this solves a lot of issues as a lot of developers think everything resides on localhost (mail, database etc) because this is how they develop locally and they think the hosting company works the same. So by having SMTP on localhost you allow most peoples code to work and avoid a lot of support issues. This tends to apply to non CF applications though, seeing as the mail server is set in the cfadmin.
