IMHO, 5000 email isn't that high of a load. CFMAIL should be able to handle
it, though it will take roughly 20 minutes to spool the mail off the CF
server. you say your ISP limits you to 2K emails? How? On the SMTP server?
Simply use a different SMTP server, or split the load over a couple or three
SMTP servers.
Also, IIS comes with a free SMTP mailserver you can fire up if you need it.
