I run the web site for a small college, and am fairly new to ColdFusion. We distribute a weekly newsletter - an e-mail announcement with headlines and teasers. It points to a cfm page. We have been using our mail server's built-in "all" list to distribute it, but there are problems with that. I have a current database of valid campus e-mail addresses. What I'd like to do is schedule this e-mail to go out around 4 a.m. (the only time that our network seems to slow down at all) on Friday mornings. I am planning to just put the cfmail inside a cfoutput that goes though a query of the addresses. Is using cfmail (ColdFusionMX on a decent Linux machine) to knock out about 3,000 emails a good idea? Are there any performance issues I should consider? Thanks.
