Don't use CFsleep to sleep for 15 minutes unless you want to tie up a thread for 15 minutes doing nothing. Depending on the max requests/threads settings, you could stall/crash the server just by reloading that page 10+ times...

The file is being deleted too quickly. I usually give it about 15 minutes.

The attachments are uploaded to a private temporay directory and then attached to the email. After the email is sent i want to delete the file from the temp directory. If the file is large (several mb) and the list is large the delete function interferes with the cfmail program, by deleting the file before all the email is processed. Is there a way to tell when the email is sent to automatically delete the temporary file and/or is there a way to set up routine that would automatically delete the temp directory every day.
