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.
