It can use the LIST or UIDL for this. Once the client has the list it then proceeds to download and delete each one in turn. Example: list +OK 2 23456 retr 1 --- mail is received here --- dele 1 retr 2 --- mail is received here --- dele 2 quit In the example above, the user had 2 messages totalling 23,456 bytes. Now, some clients can do some fancy things with the UIDL command (this provides a list of unique identifiers for the mail on the pop server). Using the uidl you can keep track of messages without actually deleting them from the server. You could also retrieve the headers from each waiting mail and then decode the date header for each and retrieve only those for a certain date range. This is not the easiest thing to do (parsing the date header can be a chore). However, the most important thing to remember about the pop protocol is that it was designed to be a message download mechanism and not a way to manage emails on the server. > In CF 5, has Macromedia enhanced the CFPOP tag to allow it to identify > messages on the server using the server's unique message id?

A small example: The web mail connects to the server (user has no current web mail messages). The server gives a list of two waiting mails with unique IDs of 100 and 101. So, you download these with pop but do not delete them (so they are still on the server). The user now has a copy of the messages in the web mail client. Later on, you get a list of 4 messages: 100, 101, 150, 151. Now, since you have the first two already, you download the last two. In this way you are not deleting the messages from the pop server. A user on the road could read messages but still have them when he gets back to the office. You can also delete the messages from the server if the user opts to from the web mail client.

Re: Marking Email Messages 'Read' with CFPOP
Howie, When a client such as Outlook Express retrieves messages or headers from a POP server, does it download all available mail headers, or is there somethin in the POP protocol that allows the client to say "only send me all messages in the mailbox after X"? In CF 5, has Macromedia enhanced the CFPOP tag to allow it to identify messages on the server using the server's unique message id?

The short answer is that you can't. Here's the longer one: The POP protocol has no provision for marking messages read. You can only read them (or portions thereof) and get basic information about each one (size, unique ID, etc.). The webmail interface is probably interacting with a data store in iMail and is not using a pop server at all. An IMAP server, on the other hand, allows you to mark messages read.

Re: legal question?????
Hi Amanda, Boy, your question sure reminded me of a similar situation where I work. Let me just say, I am NOT an attorney, so I don't know what the ramifications of this would be. I would think that if you were only doing what your management required you to do, you wouldn't be able to be pinned for any wrongdoing. After all, how do YOU know what the data is going to be used for? There have been a couple of occasions where my boss has asked me to pull data out of a database using CF (for a report, data administration, whatever) and I have no idea what the data is being used for, nor do I care. Secondly, what if you refused to include that data? That, I would think, could be considered insubordination, which is cause for termination. Here's my rule of thumb: When in doubt, *get it in writing*! If you really are concerned about it, type up an email outlining your concerns and send it to the powers-that-be that are driving this initiative. That way you have a legal record of where you stand on the issue. If they insist that you build it according to those specs, insist on a written response indicating such. I really doubt that you could be held liable for any terminations based on the application that you were directed to create (though in our increasingly letigious society I suppose anything is possible at this point). The application would run the numbers consistently across the board for all employees, correct? It's just that the numbers entered into the database could cause the skew. In that case, how can you be held responsible for the data entered into the database?

RE: legal question?????
Amanda, I would recommend that you get together with them and their legal team (assuming they have one) and make sure that you're not violating anyone's privacy rights. I worked on a questionable application in my past as well. It was a tool that allowed the system administrators to do reporting on the logs from their firewalls. They wanted to use it to do bandwidth analysis and stuff. However, part of what it could do was search for keywords in the URLs of sites that people were visiting. This meant that they could search for obscene words, find the people that hit those URLs, and possibly make judgments about what the person was doing at that site. We got legal involved and they drew some fine lines around what we could and couldn't do and what the system admin could and couldn't reliably assume from the log reports. It's a touchy subject and if you are feeling uncomfortable, I'd recommend bringing everyone in on it and clarifying things. Ultimately, the responsibility falls in the hands of the people that use the application and make decisions on it, but I know where you're coming from in being responsible for writing the code that produces the results that they'll be looking at.

RE: legal question?????
Call a lawyer for legal advice, however, there's two schools of thought on this: Will this affect your professional standing in the community? Will you loose designations or certifications over this? Do you have the request in writing? Can you blame someone else? If you DO have the reqest in writing, then cover your rear and I would do it. It's not worth arguing over. If you don't get blamed, then don't worry about it. However, the ethical matter, if you REALLY have an ethical issue, then tell them to pound salt. Your professional integrity should be something you value more than anything, and it's one thing they can't take away. However, the job market sux right now, so I'd stick with the first point.

Rick, The CFGods wish the admin site be run on a separate intranet server, inside the firewall with session-based user management.

You can use a session variable that sets the permission level (from the user record in the database) and check the permission level on the secured page. I've written a tag called cf_access which checks the session permission level, and if it's not a the desired level boots the user.

OT: Hardware Load Balancers
Hi all! I'm hoping that I can get some insight and guidance in the load balancing arena. My little group provides intranet apps for various parts of my company (some of them CF, some not). These apps are spread across HP-UX, Linux, and NT, and are also spread across multiple sites. We're looking for a smallish, inexpensive piece of hardware that would recognize that a server was down and route traffic to an alternate. It would be a bonus if it could recognize the app via URL, and route to a designated replacement. Right now, we're not worried about session and client variables. Recommendations, prices, thoughts? Vendors welcome. Many thanks!!!

Re: Securty
Rick- Basically we set a client variable with a timestamp when the user logs in, then each time the user clicks to advance to another screen we reset the variable which contains the timestamp. Each time the user clicks a button we check the current timestamp against the time in the client variable, if 20 minutes has elapsed they will be sent to a screen telling them they have been timed out and that they will need to login again. Since this functionality is written in the application cfm then once the time-out occurs, they cant click the back button to "get back-in" the app, it will continue to re-route them to login again. The administrators will be able to login from anywhere regardless of the time-out set for the application. In the application cfm you can exclude the administrators from being timed out based on login id's etc. Maybe that helps.

Re: Securty
I'd just do it like in Ben's book. in the Application.cfm, check to see if A Session.Logged exists. If not, then make it and set it to False or 0 (or however u wnna do it), and close the CFIF tag. Then do another CFIF to check if Session.Logged is FALSE and if it is, check to see that they are not on the login page, and if they arent do a CFlocation to the login page. :) , Pooh Bear Web App Developer Picture Below (chicks dig my head!) http://www.geocities.com/kickerazn_2000/sniffles_138x92.jpg";> >From: CFHelp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: CF-Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Securty >Date: Thu, 09 Aug 2001 13:18:16 -0500 > >I have an admin section on a few sites and was wondering what the best >way to handle security is.

A noo B question
I have a strange predicament at work. We have several different Cold Fusion net applications in our company. I work with one team that has it's own project and now I've been asked to help out with another project. For one reason or another, they don't let their developers mount their desktop CFStudio to the CFServer on the machine we're working with. 1. Would you have any idea why they would enforce such a policy? Just a power hungry sysadmin? 2. Since the app is huge, I can't really download it to my desktop. Is my only other option to develop on my desktop, ftp it to the server and then test? I just wanted to see if there were any rhyme or reason for this seemingly pointless development environment.

RE: CF Studio: Can Regular expression replace form.* ?
Mark, Here's what you can do. Open up your copy of ColdFusion Studio and open a document where you want to make this replacement. Once you have it open, press "CTRL+SHIFT+R" (extend search and replace). When the dialog box comes up, follow these steps: 1. Enter the following in the "Find What:" box: #(form\.[^#]*)# 2. Enter the following in the "Replace With:" box: #trim(\1)# 3. Make sure the "Match case" box is NOT checked 4. Make sure the "Regular expressions" box is checked 5. Make sure "Current document" is selected for "Find where:" I would recommend doing this on a few single files first in order to ensure reliability before doing a mass search and replace on your entire site. :) Good luck.

RE: Crystal Reports
Depends what you're trying to do. A lot of what you would like to accomplish can be done through client side scripting - the server side is tough in cold fusion - you'll find yourself re-writing tonnes of asp code to coldfusion. If you have cf on an iis box, and have no need for tonnes of session management, stick with asp. Crystal Decisions has tonnes of good sample code on using asp to generate reports. Otherwise, Cold Fusion has a cfreport tag, but all that does is convert the report to a html page. If you want something printable, then look at the crystal decisions solutions. I've implemented it myself, and do most all of the login in the browser; The only thing is that I've limited usage to the activeX control.

RE: CF5 Advanced Security
Edward, My best guess would be that both would need to be running cf5. From what I've heard, CF5 has a slightly different Advanced Security layout and queries that would not be compatible with a cf4.5 security policy store. Same applies if you are using Spectra. There's a special KB article out that discusses what you need to do in order to "upsize" your policy stores from cf4.5 to cf5 in order to run Spectra on ColdFusion 5.0.

missing tables
Good morning/afternoon, It appears as though a table has mysteriously gone missing from our SQL7 database. Of course there is no record of this table being dropped via the server or the dreaded url hack. We have previously secured our application so that hackers can not drop tables but the potential still exists. So I have three questions. 1.) Is it possible to log these actions at the DB level? Is this already being logged somewhere? 2.) How do you recover a single table from a previous days complete backup of the DB and 3) Would adding a routine which checked that the url query string contained the phrase "drop table" and then taking appropriate action ensure that this wouldn't happen. Again, I am not sure that the URL string hack was in fact the culprit. Is there any other way a table could disappear. Thanks for the help! Brook ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

legal question?????
Hello, Not sure if anyone can answer this question/concern for me but will ask anyways.I have been creating some reports for HR that will be used internally to keep track of our employees work(ie number of items completed, average numbers etc). One of the averages I am being asked to report will be a very skewed number and I am concerned because these averages are used to "grade" employees. People have been let go over these numbers. Bottom line is, I do not want to have any numbers on my report that I already know are skewed. I expressed my concern to my employer and they agreed that the numbers will be off but they want it anyways and they say they will take that into consideration. Am I in anyway liable or am I being paranoid??? :) Thanks, ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: I don't understand session locking :(
I agree. It makes more sense to not auto-lock because you have more control over how/where you do your locking. Over time and traffic, locking can cause its own major headaches. Plus, if you turn on the CF Admin option that does auto-locking, you'll see a noticeable performance hit on your server if you're getting high volumes of traffic. The locking and unlocking requires a bit of CF performance. It's a pain in the butt sometimes, but overall it's usually not too bad to do your own locking. -Tyson -Original Message- From: Matthew W Jones [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2001 9:24 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: I don't understand session locking :( had they done that, it likely would have placed a lock around each individual use. which would have been hard on performance. as they left it, you control what to lock, which allows you to place a single lock around a block of code. -Original Message- From: Dennis Powers [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2001 9:07 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: I don't understand session locking :( Maybe I am being a curmudgeon today, but it seems to me that if you ALWAYS need to lock session and application variables and would never want to use them without locks then Allaire should have coded that function into it's core design.

RE: Zip Codes
Any quantification of execution time for "spankin fast"? on the 43,000 record table? -Original Message- From: Edward Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2001 8:50 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Zip Codes Well, we've used it :) I just cut it out of a page, so it may need tweaking. I don't know of any other way to do it other then calculate against each lat/long other then precalculating some sort of matrix to try to weed out rows that you KNOW are not in the radius. It is spankin fast with US 5 digit zips. With +4 zipcodes, well, that's a lot of rows to calculate against, and I wouldn't so this. I'd have another table with the 5 digit zips, and returning the zips that match the radius, then do a +4 search. Remember that how many "locations" you have is not important to the zip-radius query. It just returns zipcodes that match - then query your 500+K row table for locations with those zipcodes. So, the flow would go like this: 1) Query to get Lat/Long (etc.) for User-Entered Zip code. 2) Query to get Zip5 zips within the radius of User-Entered Zip code (query against about 43,000 zip codes) 3) (Optional) Query against Zip+4 table filtering on the Zip5, so you are only hitting the rows that have the main zipcode returned by step 2 4) Query your location table for locations with the resulting zipcodes Paris Lundis wrote: > > Haven't tested the code below yet myself...

SMTP
I have another question. I setup IIS5 with multiple SMTP servers. Using one IP and different Ports Cold Fusion administrators mail is setup to use the default SMTP. In my CFMail tag I specify IP and Port if I want to use another SMTP. Cold Fusion Spools it and passes it to the SMTP server fine but SMTP drops the mail into the bad mail directory. Each SMTP server is setup the same except for the Port. Any Ideas?.

Re: Fw: Zachary B....
If you check the headers you'll see that there are 40 "different" messages. i.e. the HoF server got 40 messages for the list. My real concern is that this was a virus spam from the people in question and we just don't know. Remember that the list kills all attachments so if this was a virus I'm still investigating. Also note that of the thousands of people on the system only two people caused this problem. If it was a list software issue I'd expect it to be on a whole lot more (remember the volume of this server). At 01:57 PM 8/9/01, you wrote: >So far, I've received this one exactly 40 times . . . .

Re: FuseBox
Absolutely. I discovered Fusebox over a year after I started coding in cold fusion. For a good while I just kept implementing the parts of it I knew as I had time to read the spec and get used to it. Now I code everything in fusebox. The fusebox community is fantastic - and I've found coding in this methodology has actually lent me toward writing more elegant and sophisticated solutions to things as a matter of course simply because of the mindset fusebox methods draw me into. The mailing list by the way is now run through topica.com. Easy way to join is go to www.halhelms.com (a great place for fusebox info) and use the form there.

(Admin) Duplicates
The messages in question that have been duplicated each have their own message-id. This is a unique ID assigned to a post and it not changed by the HoF server. If the HoF server is passing 100 posts through then its because it's getting 100 posts to pass through. I'm going to see if all the different duplicate posts (in this case) are coming through the same server or on the same path. I hate to pass the blame on to others but in this case it looks like it's not the HoF servers fault. ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

CFMAIL in a nested CFOUTPUT
Has anyone figured out a way to prevent CFMAIL from behaving like a set of CFOUTPUT tags when it's inside a CFOUTPUT GROUP construct? Consider this greatly simplified code: some code here for building the content of the email message... my message It seems that the CFMAIL behaves the same as the simple nested CFOUTPUT, i.e., it iterates as an inner loop nested inside the CFOUTPUT GROUP, resulting in multiple messages when I only want it to send ONE. I can't use the CFMAIL with a QUERY and GROUP parameter, instead of the outer CFOUTPUT, because I need to build the email message first with some processing within the inner CFOUTPUT. Only workaround I've heard of is to build an array within the CFOUTPUT, then iterate through that outside the CFOUTPUT. If so, it seems like CFMAIL definitely needs a parameter to specify whether it loops or simply does a simple send when inside a CFOUTPUT GROUP Ideas?

I encountered a similar problem with a Fusebox'd app I'm working on. In non-FB terms, the solution was to: (1) Have the login page look for the existence of incoming form and url variables (2) Serialize them with WDDX, and stuff them in a temporary session var along with a reference to the URL they were intended for. (3) Continue with the login process. (4) After verifying the user's identity, CFLOCATION back to the original destination page, deserialize anything in the temp variable, and proceed with processing. -- Roger ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

CF Scheduler problem
Hi all, CF 4.5.1 SP2 Win 2K Server Local intranet I put a task in the Scheduler via the Admin page. (It uses cf_mail to send a test alpha pager message to a small group, with a corresponding confirm message to their mailbox.) Start date, no End date. Recurring daily at 11:00:00 Operation: HTTPRequest URL = .cfm page on a local box The day I put it in the scheduler (7/30/01), the task worked fine. The next day (7/31/01) it worked fine. Since then, it has not worked at all. Scheduler.log shows: "Information","TID=752","08/01/01","10:52:35","Refreshing scheduled task list initiated." "Information","TID=752","08/01/01","10:52:35","Refreshing scheduled task list completed."

RE: I don't understand session locking :(
You make a very good point. My field experience on many different sites is deal with locking in the development/qa phase. Watch the Application and Server logs religiously and lock code as identified in these logs. Also watch the Application and Server logs on the live servers and lock code as identified in these logs. The bottom line is check these logs at least daily and whittle down the errors. I do not subscribe to the "lock-everything" school of thought and this is from direct real-world experience.

If you don't lock reads as well as writes, and there's any possibility of the two operations happening simultaneously (and there usually is), then the lock you put on the write is useless by itself. ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Maybe so. I can't speak to that, since I don't know enough about the internals of the CF server.
