Re: C:\ColdFusion8\Mail\Spool
[bump]
Does anyone happen to know whether this problem is fixed/ameliorated by
upgrading from CF8 to CF9?

Re: C:\ColdFusion8\Mail\Spool
The same thing has happened to use before. I never found any logs indicating the cause and a service restart prompted the spooled emails to start sending again. It was just one of the few reasons we put all of our servers on a weekly reboot schedule.

RE: \ColdFusion8\Mail\Spool
John, Anything revealing in your mail log? I've seen this behavior before, but not with CF 8. It was with older versions. We ended up scheduling a nightly restart of the service to alleviate things like this occurring.

I went to Server Settings > Mail, checked Verify mail server connection, clicked Submit Changes, and received Connection Verification Successful. I stopped and restarted my SMTP server and then noticed that email I was expecting to receive was sitting in C:\ColdFusion8\Mail\Spool.

So this AM, my production server had not sent me my usual batch of emails (via cfmail). I went to Server Settings > Mail, checked Verify mail server connection, clicked Submit Changes, and received Connection Verification Successful. I stopped and restarted my SMTP server and then noticed that email I was expecting to receive was sitting in C:\ColdFusion8\Mail\Spool.
