Disadvantage:
- you can wait for up to a minute before the mail gets processed.
Although, with Schedule::Cron, you can schedule jobs every second
The database idea has some good uses - I run 120 shop sites and of
course they're constantly sending out account confirmations, order
updates, etc. Currently there's no way of easily tracking what happened
to an email or finding out when, for example, hotmail decides to
completely ignore a password confirmation request. If each email (or a
representation of it) were stored, a status field could easily be
updated by something processing the mail server logs.
Of course, all that could be wrapped up as one of several email sending
methods.
