I don't alter anything. Perhaps something within the file (crappy email address?) that's killing the transfer before it can even dump it back in undelivr?

If memory serves, there was a bug in CFMX6.0 that moving files from Undelivr to Spool wouldn't cause them to be sent until CF was restarted. There was also something about the files being renamed (and Undelivered being misspelled, too) and the Spooler wouldn't pick up those files until they were renamed to the proper format. I can't find the technote, though. Fixed in 6.1. All works just fine for me with the latest updater. (Works in CF5.0 too, FWIW.) __ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo!

Re: Undeliverable CFMAIL: code to handle
I always assumed that the current name was just to have a directory name that was 8 characters or less, for compatibility with something ancient. I was speaking to Richard Crawford's message: I'm actually running CF in a Solaris environment. I executed the following command: $ cd Undelvr $ cp Undelievered_Mailx.cfmail ../Spool But that didn't quite do it. I assume that I need to change the filename when I move it to the Spool directory. That's the misspelling I was talking about. Just one of many reasons to get past 6.0 as fast as possible. __ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo!
