CFMAIL is made to mail lots of people I regularly use it to mail in excess
of 100,000 mails a day to some of our bigger Newsletter lists - the key is
to mail them in batches, usually 5000 to 10,000 depending on server
resources. I use a script I wrote to pull the list of subscribers from a db
and loop through and mail them through the cfmail tag. You can use this to
decided what kind of mail to send them (Plain/HTML) to check whether they
have unsubscribe or not and to insert personalized messages. The CFMAIL tag
works great for this.
Im using it on a Win 2K machine SP1 , CF 4.5.1 SP2,Imail 6.3.

Dude, CFMAIL is not the way to go when emailing like 1600 people. Can you
write a text file to the spool directory?
