I use CFMAIL to send 50,000 emails a pop and it takes less than 30 minutes
to send them all to the mail server (IMail 6.0.x).

I can fairly well assure you that 10,000 email can not be sent from cfmail
in 1 hour.  I have about 20,000 messages that takes about 21 hours. :-(

They can be spooled to the spool folder in a matter of a few minutes.  But
its the post operations that takes the time.  CFMAIL is single threaded thus
on one at a time goes out.

You may want to look at www.coolfusion.com and check out their "CFmail"
replacement.

Can anyone give me some information on the real world limitations of CFMAIL?
I'm looking at doing a system that needs to send at least 10,000 emails per
hour. Can CFMAIL RELIABLY deal with this type of load if running on say a
dual Pentium 1 Ghz NT/2000 system? I'd appreciate any numbers you can
provide to me from experience.

Thanks,

Marc
