Start from first principles - write a new page that just does a basic <cfmail> without any fanciness. Add in extra bits (multipart/alternative, long from address, etc) one at a time until it is the same as these emails you can't send, or it fails to deliver, whichever happens first. Hopefully a process of elimination should help identify the problem.

"Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> nts.co.uk> cc: Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] URGENT: cfmail issue - undeliverables 22/07/2004 13:57 Please respond to dev Hi Duncan, Thanks for your response, I have checked the mail.log file on the coldfusion server and it says nothing apart from starting with the following line: "Error","scheduler-5","07/22/04","05:38:14",,"The ColdFusion mail spool encountered an invalid spool file in the spool directory. The invalid file was Mail62142.cfmail. This file was moved to the undelivered directory." There was no files with 0kb in either the undelvr/spool folder, I have also tried what you said but it still chucks them back into the undelvr folder. Even on cut and paste back into the spool it doesn't work. Starting to pull my hair out on this one!!

"Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> nts.co.uk> cc: Subject: [ cf-dev ] URGENT: cfmail issue - undeliverables 22/07/2004 12:26 Please respond to dev Morning, I have a serious problem, I have just done a mailing for one of my clients and they have all come back and are now permanently stuck in the undelivr Folder and when I copy and paste they get chucked back into it. I have checked the from address, reply address, and the to address and all are fine. A portion of the emails went out but most of the didn't. This has happened before but my hosting company said it was because I did it at peak time and coldfusion server leaves cfmail till the end and processes all requests before processing mail. Its really important I get these mails out if possible so if any of you have any ideas I would be grateful.

I am using this to generate an OrderID which I then ouput as the orderNO. Being lazy I guess. I'll make a new order no based on the date & time. Just would have been easier to use the last part of the UUID provided it was always different. As you say though its really unique in its wholeness ....
