Check out Coolfusion's IMS SE.  We do a lot of bulk mailing to our 
alumni and it works great for us... *FAR* more reliable than 
coldfusion's mail spooling.

IMS SE gives you a cf_mail tag that inserts the mail directly into the 
outgoing mail queue of a "real mail server"... instead of being spooled 
to coldfusion and then coldfusion sending it to the mail server.

Doesn't CFMX7 Enterprise have 'high speed email delivery'?
I recall some stats... 4 billion emails an hour I think :)

Not too sure what activemail is, but we use imsMail lite, and haven't had
any issues.  We do use a dedicated mail server that ims forwards it mail to,
but other then that no issues.  

We send mail to an average of 30k users per day (and those go out within a
few hours at the most).
