Nope that's a dirty fib. Only Session, Application and Server variables have to be locked (and then really only in CF 5 and below if stability is your concern). I'd request a technician with some CF horse sense. However you might want to attempt to lock your mail process in a named lock to serialize it and see if your problem goes away.
