Shawn and Cam got this, if you dump too many emails into the CF spool without that hotfix. The spool will lock up and not do anything. You should see errors in your mail.log file for CF. This is not an issue in CF8. A restart will temporarily fix it but you will want to apply that hotfix or upgrade to CF8. Typically, if you are sending a mass emails, do them in smaller batches of 100-200 each and send them in 5-10 min bursts to prevent problems such as these.

Is there a way to force the spool to fire off?

Is there a scheduled task triggering the emails? Manually run it and watch those directories to see if it appears. If it doesn't, the template is probable erroring - run it by hand in the browser to see what the error is. You may also want to look in the application.log and exception.log files for the error if it's now trapped in a cfcatch block. If you are sure the template isn't erroring, make sure that mail logging is turned on in the administrator and check the logs. -Cameron On Mon, Jun 23, 2008 at 1:09 PM, Jeff Howard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Can anyone tell me where to look if I'm having issues with mail not being > sent.
