I have used cfmail many many times with no issues. I have used it to send over 100,000 emails at one time and it didn't blink. There are a few options you have to pause the server after so many emails, there is cfx_sleep in the tag gallery or there is a udf on cflib that uses the java library to pause the server. I would stick with cfmail if I were you, it fits your needs.

My site is on a shared hosting environment, though, and it seems iMS SE needs to be installed as a system service, which my ISP is not likely to accept. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I need a solution which will run on a shared environment - and with a minimum of CFX tags, as I have to pay $10/month for each of them just to have them installed.
