Yesterday I became aware that 340 absolutely critical emails had been dumped by CFMX
to the "undelvr" folder. The mail logs had the notation that the "connection timed
out". After some discussion with our netadmin folk, it turns out the problem was that
the IP addresses for the two SMTP relay machines had been changed.
CFMX did not pick up on this and simply continued to dump the outgoing emails as
undelivered. Restarting the service solved the problem. What I'm wondering is, can
anyone think of a programmatic method to check on this situation periodically so we
can either force CFMX to reload network/DNS data or so we can notify ourselves that
the IP addresses have changed?
It seems to me that CF should refresh itself periodically but I don't know if it does,
or if there is a way to force it to, other than stopping and starting.
I'm sure this was an unusual circumstance, but if it happened once . . .
thanks
