I know this is largely a theoretical question about side-effects and STM in Clojure, but… In the end, there's always the chance that you'll send duplicate emails, all you can do is try to minimize that. There's also the chance that you never actually successfully send the email, if for no other reason than there's no way to ensure the email is received or to know if it was received. Not to mention spam filters. Using specialist email services is something to seriously consider, it'll make your job much easier, all you have to do is make sure the email request is received by the service -- there's a protocol for that. A decent service will do much better than you can do at making sure the email is sent. Cheers, Bob -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
