Thanks for the reference, Jochem.

The problem is that CF takes *forever* to move the mail from it's spool
to the SMTP queue. I have the spool interval set to 15 seconds, and it
seems to send 100 messages each time.  That's crawling! 

The docs for AdvancedEmail show:

---
SPOOLDIR
Required. The directory that ColdFusion uses as spooldir for
emailmessages. On Windows platforms this usually is
c:\cfusion\mail\spool\. The directory should end with a \ or a /.
---

I want to drop the mail in the SMTP server's pickup directory - and
completely bypass CF's mail handling.

Thanks,

Jeff

If you want to reinvent the wheel, RFC 2821. Else:
