Hi Alan,
Should i raise the hook one as a request ?
For the spool stuff is there a function I can call from an open bd
instance that will give me the directory location of its work
directory, So that I can determine the filesystem path and just use
cfdirectory ?
Many thanks
Alex

Got a few questions around Email and Open BD
1. Are there any Open BD admin functions for interacting with the
OpenBD Mail queue ?
-->If there was id love to use these to write a mail manager in the
OpenBD admin, its something that always frustrated me about
ColdFusion.
In short no; it is very much like the "sendmail" world; it is all
directory based. The state of the various spool/failed directory will
give you a window into that world.
2. Is there a way of extending the Mail setup of open bd so that you
could either specify a hook to be called onSendMail or onFailedMail of
email, that CFC implemented could do stuff with what it learnt.
now that is indeed a very cool idea ... i like that. Now you have to
remember, that even if that was called, we can't guarantee it was
delivered; all it means it was successfully/failed to the upstream MTA
agent.
But i do like that hook. I am thinking you could add that to the
<CFMAIL callbackcfc="mycfc"> and override the methods accordingly. mmmmm
like that.
4. Can anyone clarify how often OpenBD looks at the spool folder if i
copy mail from undelivered back into spool I think I actually have to
send another email before it will pick them up ? Is there a way
through the API of triggering it to pickup mail instantly.
No it will look at the folder again periodically -- granted sending
another email will short cut that timer.
