After being hacked by spammers, endless hours setting up our own email
servers to watch them crumble and wanting to yell at Allaire for their weak
cfmail... this plan made our email problems go away on our Windows 2000
enviroment...
Get the affordable priced NetMailBot Pro from http://www.netmailbot.com .
It's a little exe that operates like send mail, but for Windows. You create
a custom tag that sends it commands via cfexecute. Spammers can't get to it
and it works with dbs.
NetMailBot then relays the email to our vendor, Swishmail.com. Theses guys
are great. Once you put your server(s) ip on their relay list, your mail
will be sent. Swishmail has a cool html interface for you to send, recieve
and manage your email on their servers on the cheap. They'll help you set up
