I was perusing the mail.log file this morning because for some reason the mail spooler stopped running. The good news is that restarting CF got mail flowing again.
I found a strange thing though. There are lines in the mail.log that read "Could not connect to SMTP host: {servername}, port: 25" the weird thing is that the server name that appears on these lines is not the smtp server that is configured for ColdFusion. This is a standard license of CF8 so there should be no other configurations for CF anywhere on the machine. I did a search for that server name on the entire hard disk and the only reference to that smtp server I could find was in ColdFusion8\lib\neo-mail.xml. I changed this to the correct smtp server and restarted ColdFusion, but I'm still seeing these lines in the mail.log. Anyone have any clue where this phantom SMTP server record is coming from? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:319295 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
