There have been numerous postings about the unreliability of CFMAIL. We've experienced it here ourselves. We've gone with iMSMail from www.coolfusion.com . They have a "POST" server for only about $250 and it has a CFX tag that allows you to completely by-pass CFMAIL. Very reliable, very stable. There is also "ActiveMail" from www.cfdev.com that is a good alternative.

Hi folks, I'm running CF5 on Linux. I'm having a strange CFMAIL problem that maybe someone could shed some light on. When I send a single mail via CFMAIL, it gets sent fine. However, if I spool a bunch (even a small number like 50), one of two things happens: - I suddenly get "Unable to connect to mail server" log messages. All msgs in spool get dumped in undelivered. or - CF seems to simply give up. Messages just sit in /spool -- no error messages, nothing. Simply nothing happens until I restart CF. Is there a known bug in CF that may explain this? Or is something very wrong with my SMTP server?
