I don't know "under the covers", but anecdotally from watching large cfmail
spool directories empty, it always looks to me like it is sending each
message one at a time in serial fashion.

This is getting into the mechanics of how SMTP servers work. I don't think
it requires any kind of connection, I think it just fires off the message to
the stated SMTP server address on the port listed. I assume it waits for a
response, and if none if receieved, or if an error response is received, it
moves the mail message to the undelivr queue.

no idea
There is a custom tag called CF_REsendUndeliverableEmail that I use to
re-queue mail from the undelivr folder. You can get it off the MM Exchange,
if you can't find it email me offline at robert.munn at peregrine.com and
I'll be happy to send you the version I have.
