> 3) Is the Windows SMTP Server really a good option to send the CFMail to?
I would say no. I would also say that using cold fusion to send out mass mailings is a little risky as well. There is no bounce detection, so your database remains polluted with non valid email addresses (unless you manually go through them and delete each one) The load on a SMTP server can be quite high, if there has to be a connection made for each email to be sent to that particular domain. Say you have 1000 users that have hotmail accounts. That means cold fusion (or your SMTP server) will have to make 1000 individual connections. If coldfusion supported XVERP(http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/505/2000/4/50/3586087/), this would be eliminated. Blake - You are subscribed to the CFUGToronto CFTALK ListSRV.
