What's more, it sometimes sends out bare linefeeds in its emails.  Such
emails will not be accepted by QMail servers.  Also, some versions of MS
SMTP (NT4), when getting a rejection from the QMail server, try sending the
mail again, resulting in a mail loop that eats up bandwidth and $$ very
quickly.

We are using cfx_mail2, and are happy with it as it interfaces directly into
our normal SMTP server.

Subject: Re: CFMAIL - 40 recipient maximum? What gives?



Wow, I didn't know about this limit either.  However, having said that,
CFMAIL in no way meets "enterprise level" reliability.  I would not process
anything important using CFMAIL unless I had a routine in place that would
check the mail\undelivr folder and parse/resend/flag any email that does not
go out the first time (or parse the mail error log, or something).
Basically if all or some of your mailing ends up in the undelivr folder for
whatever reason, you won't know about it 'till you look.  What CF could use
is a way to programmatically make sure your email was really sent out (ie.
that it at least made it to your mail server-- obviously what happens after
that has nothing to do with CF).

Anyhow, sorry for the OT rant.  If you want a more reliable mail sending
engine and don't mind spending some $$, check out inFusion POST SE at
www.coolfusion.com.

Cheers,
