cfmail problems
All, I had cfmx 6.1 running on a Windows server. The mail setting had never worked, but I had never needed it, so I left it as is. Anyway, I need it for a project now, so here goes. I updated 6.1 using the updater and voila, it worked . for about 3 days. Just today morning while I was testing I sent three emails to myself and it had worked then. Suddenly now it cannot connect to the smtp server of my ISP. So I activated the IIS SMTP server to see if it would connect to that. Doesn't do it there either. Now this is all on my test server. I went through the same routine three days ago with my production server and the updater managed to get my cfmail working. At the same time that my cfmail on my test server crapped out, the cfmail on my production server crapped out. Now I know what you are thinking: ISP problems! But I can send and receive mails with no problems. What's more I tested the same thing with a totally different CF 5 server with the ISP's SMTP and it works fine. What gives?

CFMail Problems
I'm having an interesting problem with an application. I searched the archives and found issues with 0 byte emails and spool questions about CF Mail, but nothing that matches this. Why would CFMail put a perfectly good email in the Undeliverable folder? I have an app that generates a steady flow of emails all day long and they typically get delivered. However there are some cases where an email will get batched in the undeliverable folder. I don't have access to the server logs as of yet but it's rather disconcerting. On the same issue, my mind's already working on a work-around for the issue. I'm thinking it might come in the form of a batch file that automatically copies any files in the undeliver directory that meet a specific criteria back into the spool directory. My thought was to base it on the date/time stamp of the file, however I'm wondering if CF changes the date/time stamp when it moves a message into undeliver. Thanks! C.

Re: CFMail Problems
As a note, I wrote an application several months ago that scanned the Undeliverable folder in CF for mail and made 3 attempts to resend the message before discarding the message (stored attempts in a database). It worked pretty well, but the code is on my former employer's servers which I don't have access to. But it can be done and it was pretty successful. It typically caught all the good mail that just got shoved aside for whatever reason. CFMail is pretty buggy (especially 4.x and 5) so I'd recommend doing something similar if you're not using MX. So far I haven't had any issues with MX and CFMail, but I'm still going to be re-writing that application for my new CFMX server just in case. If you can find a reliable method to scan the undelivered mail for status codes or something then it would be more efficient than resending everything that doesn't get delivered.

Re: CFMAIL problems
It's difficult to track these things down unless you have access to the email server. If you can look at the log files you can at least determine if the mail server sent the mail to the same person twice. If it did then you can determine if the server got the mail twice from the CF server or if there was some other reason why the mail server sent the same email again. If the mail server logs look OK then the problem is on the recipient's side.

I don't know that this is your specific problem, or even if it's remotely true, but I've been hearing reports of large scale email problems. I've been receiving duplicates or not receiving messages from a number of lists I subscribe to (as have others on the lists) and, sometimes, don't receive messages until a couple of days after they were sent.

CFMail problems/limitations
Does anyone know if there is a limitation to the number of characters that can be used in the body of a message sent using the CFMail tag. I have an application that dynamically sends emails to users where the To, Subject, and body fields are populated with information from a SQL database. The information in the database is correct. However, when the message gets sent out, long paragraphs in the body get cut off. Is there a limit to how long a single paragraph can be within the tag. Thanks for any help. Thomas J.

RE: Cfmail problems
Just did a quick search of the Rockliffe KB, and there are several articles on Network I/O errors having to do with connection terminations. I am suspecting that since CF thinks it sent the mail, the error is occurring at the end of the command sequence. Anything in the cfmail.log? Yes, this problem may only happen with CF, and who knows, it might even be because CF doesn't obey some standard RFC thingy. However, the mailserver should be able to gracefully handle this. I would look further into your mail server vendor's KB for a solution. -Cameron Cameron Childress elliptIQ Inc. p.770.460.1035.232 f.770.460.0963 -- http://www.neighborware.com America's Leading Community Network Software -Original Message- From: Michel Gallant [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2001 3:08 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Cfmail problems Sorry, it`s Rockliffe mailsite 3.4.7 Only cfmail causes this problem.

RE: Cfmail problems
This is the same issue we had a few days ago. Sending email upon form submission on a one-at-a-time basis. We are using Rockliffe also and have thousands of other client mail porocessed daily with no issue. After researching it intensly it looked like the mail server thought that additional header information was in the CFMAIL body and was erroring out at random points of the body text. We were unable to isolate specific trends in the point of error and ... well, due to immense client pressure, moved on towards a different solution deciding to continue research later. We ended up getting iMS inFusion Mail Server SE and converted all CFMAIL code to use the iMS CFX. Now all runs lickedysplit. This may not be the answer you're looking for but I at least wanted to share...

RE: CFMAIL problems
Thanks Sean, I also get this problem when sending just one email, the looping was just a test I did to how reliable the system was. My understanding it that when you do a cfmail, it doesnt actually send the mail straight away, it places it in spool directory as a text file, and every N seconds some sort of process mails everything in the spool directory. i am going to try use cfx_wait, but it seems strange to me that this effects how your mail is sent, if it was sent instantly it would make sense to me.

Re: CFMAIL problems
Nick, the dll's for cfmail and cfftp are horrible. so if you had the problem once where you sent out a bunch of email, the dll is now corrupted. Even if you try to send one now chances are its not going to get out. At best you have to restart the server, at worst you have to reinstall the dll.

Re: CFMAIL problems
If I remember correctly reinstalling the dll is just a matter of replacing it with a different one and restarting the server. I believe the dll you are looking for is C:\CFUSION\BIN\smtp.dll. You might want to call tech support to make sure however. If it were me, I would install CF on a development box, grab that dll from the development box and put it were the one on the production box is.

I don't use PCAnywhere, as I have physical access to my cf server. I'm not sure what effect that will have on what you need to do and if it has anything to do with you error message. Do you have physical access to the coldfusion box? If you're logging into remote machine with PCAnywhere, it may be that your user account on the remote machine doesn't have the appropriate administrator rights, and you need administrator access to be able to assign the appropriate rights to the folders. If you do have admin rights you might be getting the same error because the CF services are still running and thus have tied up access to the directories. What I meant by stopping all the coldfusion services is actually stopping the coldfusion services running under NT (see "services" on the Windows Control Panel) on the server. If they're running then they might take control of directories or resources to which you need to make changes. In any event, if you have access to the server or are in contact with the machine's administrator, this is what needs to be done (I'm trying to remember the NT4 specific stuff. I'm running Win2K): -Log in under an account with full administrator privileges; -Open the Control Panel and Select "Services"; -Highlight "Cold Fusion Application Server" and select Stop; -Do the same for "Cold Fusion Executive" and "Cold Fusion RDS"; -Under Windows Explorer, open the properties for first folder in question and go to the security Tab. -Select Permissions. Click "Add" and highlight "SYSTEM". You might have to click the "Show Users" button to get SYSTEM to show on the list; -Select Full Control for the type of access; -Click OK; -You can leave "Everyone" for now, unless someone else on the list thinks that's not wise; -Go to each folder in turn and do the same. There's something I also missed on your original message: SMTP server replied "No connection to mail server." With a ping or nslookup from the coldfusion server, double check both the IP and DNS of the mail server you're using. On the mail settings in the ColdFusion Administrator, click "Verify" to make sure CF can see the mail server. Also, contact whoever is in charge of the mail server to make sure it is up and running. Using the IP is probably a good idea, since the cf system won't have to do a name lookup each time. Beyond that, make sure that your TCP/IP settings are correct. Hope this helps.

CFMail Problems, please HELP !
Dear Lawrence, I am having the same CFMail problem as you had before ( I read your e-mail posted on Allaire dated on May 2, 2000). Error messages I got: SMTP server replied"Internal error: Pending mail operations must be completed." Moved file to: \CFUSION\MAIL\undelivr\11B8.cfmail." "Failed to send the spooled mail file, D:\CFUSION\MAIL\spool\1132.cfmail. SMTP server replied "No connection to mail server." Moved file to D:\CFUSION\MAIL\undelivr\\1133.cfmail." After I re-booted PCAnywhere and moved all messages from Udelivr folder to Spool folder, it started to send e-mail again. But after I upgraded my MailMax from Version 3.0 to 4.6, I have all the e-mails sitting in the Udelivr folder and they couldn't be sent out even though I tried the same trick. I changed the Mail server setting in the Coldfusion administrator from IP to real mail server name, it still not working. Any idea to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

RE: CFMAIL problems on 4.51 SP 2
i send out over 48,000 at a time in lots of 8,000. it takes less than 4
minutes to spool each (24 minutes for all of them) lot of 8000 out. in fact,
i *just* sent out 48,000 last night and another 48,000 this morning.
i don't have a clear answer to your problem, but i'm running CF4.5.1SP2 on
NT4.0SP5 and don't have any problems with it, so i don't think it's CF.
1) does CF on your 98 machine talk to the mail server OK in the
administrator?
2) just for kicks, put the content of the mail ("test") on its own line
(line break after the opening CFMAIL tag). don't know if it will work, but
that's just what i would try first.
keep us posted, i'd be curious to see what happens. and if you want to email
me off-list i'd be happy to help. i do a lot with CFMAIL and CFPOP (and
non-CFPOP POP3 tools).

RE: CFMAIL problems on 4.51 SP 2
Bud, I am currently using smtp.dll date time stamp is 5/12/00 7:13 size is 65,536 file version 4,5,1,1. I think it is the one that came in the zip file. I also have my delay time set to 230. By the way, I have only done small amounts of e-mails (500 to 800 using NT and win98) and have successfully done this with the query parameter in cfmail (not looping) ;-) Based on some of the stuff I have read on different lists, I suppose I'll need to change this to a loop as the number of e-mails gets larger.

fixed in SP2, that caused this behavior.
It would only happen when you had a single template that executed more than
one cfmail in the same template, via a loop or just more than one instance
of the tag. Our experience with this bug was we could easily recreate it
but it wasn't as consistent as you have described. It seemed to very on
several factors... All based around the filesystem on the drive and the
relative access times to the spool directory.
From our own diagnosis, we found that the spooler appeared to be single
threaded in its filesystem writes to the spool directory. CF would begin to
write one file, then try to write another before it closed the first. We
would usually see 0k spool files in the spooler. Before SP1 the spooler
would then lock when it encountered the 0k file thus requiring a restart of
the service to resume mail operations.
Allaire never responded to us what the cause was, but 3 months into the
call tag, they did admit they could finally recreate the problem and that
it would be addressed in SP2. I have no idea if it was, as we long since
moved away from our CF spooler problems and use a different product to
spool all of our webserver generated mail.
It was our opinion that Allaire had little intention of correcting the
problem or packaging a robust enough spooler to meet our needs. We did
suggest that there wasn't enough disparity between Pro and ENT, and perhaps
the ENT package should include a fully functional multi-threaded smtp
relay. I suggest checking out aspmail or moving back to 4.1 :(
Don't know if it helps, but thought I would share.
PS. We were able to send out hundreds of thousands of emails a day using
single instances of cfmail tags, this bug only happens with more than one
tag, and it seemed the length of the email, or the inclusion of an
attachment greatly increased the likelihood of it happening.

i send out over 48,000 at a time in lots of 8,000. it takes less than 4
minutes to spool each (24 minutes for all of them) lot of 8000 out. in
fact,
i *just* sent out 48,000 last night and another 48,000 this morning.
Do you loop through them or use a query parameter?
--- I use CFLOOP.
i don't have a clear answer to your problem, but i'm running CF4.5.1SP2 on
NT4.0SP5 and don't have any problems with it, so i don't think it's CF.
I ran a couple small tests on NT and didn't have the problem.
--- So maybe it's something about running on 98?
1) does CF on your 98 machine talk to the mail server OK in the
administrator?
Sure. In fact, the first 2 mails go fine, then it hangs on the 3rd
one. I never had any problems with 4.1. I'm stuck using my ISP's mail
server so I can't test using a different one from home.
---What is their mail server?
2) just for kicks, put the content of the mail ("test") on its own line
(line break after the opening CFMAIL tag). don't know if it will work, but
that's just what i would try first.
Same result.
---Sometimes wierd things work. Worth ruling them out. :)

CFMAIL Problems
I have an application that uses CFMAIL that worked perfectly with ColdFusion Server v4.0.1.0. I recently upgraded my server to v4.5.1 with SP1. Now 10 to15% of the emails are moved to the "UNDELIVR" folder and the mail.log shows the following message: SMTP server replied "Communication failure with mail server. I developed a routine to move the files back to the "SPOOL" folder so that they could be resent. The log file shows that all files are ultimately sent, but 1 or 2 emails out of 6 is lost and are never received. Has anyone run into this problem and come up with a solution?

CFMAIL problems
Hi, we have a bit of a problem mailing through ColdFusion. Our servers are all set to GMT with daylight saving time. This is fine, unfortunately it seems that CFMAIL does not take this into account so when a recipient gets a mail from coldfusion it looks as though they receive the mail before it has actually been sent. Ha sanyone got any recommendations on how to resolve this??

RE: cfmail problems
Hi Michael, Thanks for the advice. Interestingly enough, I found another guy on Allaire forums who was describing the exact same problem and he was also attaching a rich-text file. Unfortuantely, forums have been down most of today so I haven't been able to post there about it. I'll bet you're right though, it must be something in that attachment.

Re: cf 4.5 cfmail problems
I have an email being sent out with cfmail on a coldfusion 4.5 server. The content is being pulled from a database. The copy in the database is perfect. However once the email is received by the user the copy has problems. This is the copy as it sites in the database: "security at the company since the." The copy how it appears in the email: "security at the compa! ny since the" any ideas??? Yep. My co-worker was dealing with that same issue a few days ago. The answer is, that the lines are too long in the outgoing mail and some mail servers cut them (and add ! sign to the end). Try wrapping your lines before sending the mail. Use wrap.cfm that comes with one of the CF example apps (/cfdocs/exampleapp/email/wrap.cfm).
