Messages that Cold Fusion is not able to hand off to the smarthost appear
here.  Your smtp server may accept abc and 123 as valid email addresses and
just try to append you domain to the end of them.  Try putting a bad IP
address for the SMTP server and watch the directory fill up.

Subject: What is the purpose of the \cfusion\mail\undevilr directory?

Firstoff, I'm using CF 4.5.1.  I thought that the "undevilr" folder was
there to catch mail that was either sent back or timed out contacting the
mail server.  Am I wrong?
I tried this tag, which was formatted badly on purpose.

<cfmail from="abc" to="123" subject="test">Test</cfmail>

When I execute this tag, a spool file does appear in the \spool directory.
When it is sent, the file dissapears from the \spool directory, but nothing
appears in the \undelivr directory.  No error in the logs, no undelived
email.  Kind odd.

Maybe <cfmail> dosn't use VRFY when using SMTP.  :/
Any ideas?
