RE: Multiple CFMail Problem
The only problem with that is that for as long as you want cf to sleep it
will loop and loop and loop and loop and loop and loop. It would be like
telling a taxi driver to drive for 5 minutes while you get your bags instead
of telling him to shut off the car to conserve gas. Here is a UDF I found
that uses a java com object to sleep. Works beautifully.
function sleep(timeMillis) {
var thread = createObject("java", "java.lang.Thread");
thread.sleep(timeMillis);
}

RE: Multiple CFMail Problem
We experienced this problem with all versions of 4.5. Allaire never did 'fix' the error. They claimed it was fixed in 4.5.1, however it still existed, just wasn't as persistent as earlier versions. Our own diagnosis determined that the cause of the error was the cfmail.dll(I forget the actual name of the DLL) was trying to write two files at the same time. Or perhaps more correctly, it would attempt to write the second file before the first was closed. We would typically end up with 0k files in the undeliverable section. Anyway, adding some pause between the cfmails may solve your problem provided the site isn't terribly active and there aren't too many simultaneous requests to these cfmail calls. We found the size of the emails also greatly affected how often this error would occur. For example, if you have a page that sends 4 different emails to 4 different contacts at one company and each email contains a 10k attachment, you can start to duplicate this bug with some regularity. Now imagine that page being hit every 5 seconds... Now, the speed of your server and file system are also going to affect how often this happens. So, adding pauses and using smaller emails MAY solve your problem depends on how active your site is. Ultimately, our solution was to switch to an alternate means of generating email. We switched to an ASP product that is actually multi-threaded unlike Allaire/Macromedias solution. For years, I have been suggesting that CF Enterprise be bundled with a robust multi-threaded smtp spooler that should be directly tied to the application engine. Enterprise sites that deal with high mail loads would benefit from this. Also, it would add more product disparity between pro and ent, something I personally feel is lacking. I have not tested these same errors (bugs?) in CF 5. Perhaps it has been corrected, but honestly, if past performance of eliminating mail bugs between revisions is any indication, I would suspect they only added new and more exciting problems ;) Trey Rouse Internet Project Coordinator Web Services - Rice University MS 119 - 713.348.4799 PS - I love CFM, I just loath CFMAIL. -Original Message- From: Willy Ray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 08, 2002 10:43 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Multiple CFMail Problem Hey All, Here's my situation.
