I am also on a Linux box, but using a relay server to physically send. The probs have been that they've getting knocked off the spool to Undeliv, so the problem is definitely with CFMAIL and it's interaction with the spooler. I think I'll keep a max of 50 per go, and yes, I'll try once a minute, thanks.

But we are using Linux with Linux also as the mail server which cannot be compared really if you are using a Windows Mail Server. If you have 1500 then 50/100 every minute or two should be OK.

As CFMAIL with QUERY= is so unreliable I'm thinking of using some kind of scheduled email sending based upon some nominal option like first letter of email address. Our email marketing list is less than 1500 addresses ( all opt-in, of course!! ), but I don't want the whole job taking more than, say 3 or 4 hours- breaking news is hardly breaking 5 hours later. So are there any reasons why CFMAIL can't handle spooling, say 20 emails at a time, each batch sent every 5 minutes? Has anyone successfully handled larger volume without using 3rd party mail software? Thanks, Kevin DISCLAIMER: This e-mail is confidential and may also be legally privileged.
