Well CFMAIL will handle whatever you throw at it if you:
A) are patient.
B) realistic...
I have successfully got it to do 20-50k emails... took a day it
seemed.. but worked...
Carve the sets of records up.. do them in batches of 1000... also
check the log/temp space where it stores the still waiting to be
sents... You can get crushed by such, since it is 1 file per email...
it does nice destructive things to your drives... A RAM drive would be
a good use for such :)
I am interested in the Java mail tag someone on the list wrote.. too
bad it only allows 250 test emails... I wanted to get a timed version
so I could determine how it performed with 10k or more emails being
thrown at it... (please accomodate :) )
