Can anyone give me some real-world experiences with IMail performance? We
have a custom email list application written in ColdFusion. We can easily
send out over 100,000 emails over a couple of days (about 600 every 10
minutes). We would use IMail for our SMTP server. I know that IMail attempts
to send every message immediately and then puts anything it can't send into
the mail queue. The mail queue is then worked based on the retry settings
and queue timer.
It is a fact of life that when sending that many emails, many are not sent
right away due to the availability of the receiving SMTP server. IMail would
place these into the queue. Is it true that the queue is only worked by a
single thread? If so, I fear that my undelivered queue would grow to be
enormous.
Any comments on your experience in this area would be appreciated.
John
