I think java is probably my best bet. Out of curiosity which would be quicker - using cfmail to send email or writing directly to the cfusion/spool directory using cffile?

You could use a COM object, a C++ or Java CFX tag, or (I've only heard of this) you can format files correctly and drop them in a directory monitored by an email service. There is no way to "directly talk" to an SMTP server (no "native" cf way to do it anyway). -mk -----Original Message----- From: Duane Boudreau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 9:21 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Alternative to CFMail Hi All, Is there away to by pass cf for sending email all together? Is there a way to "talk" directly with the smtp service on a mail server? Thanks, Duane ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
