On a good day I can have my box spit out 2.000 mails per minute,

That's just queued to disk?  or delivered from queue to smtp destination?

Howie needs to how many mails / hour delivered OUT OF THE CF BOX (to his 
next hop MTA).

30 ms/msg is pretty darn good, anyway.

3,000,000 / day ... queued to disk!  LOL

"dans queue" for that info, Dirk.

Len  on a queued day, you can wait forever!

To the disk. I missed the bit about getting the message to the client.

So first the messages are queued locally, then I deliver them to a smart
host at my provider, this will be typically at 150 to 300 msg per minute,
obviously depending on numerous factors such as local server load, remote
server load, bandwidth.

To actually get them delivered to the client is not my concern at this
point, not until my ISP starts complaining. I guess this will takes a couple
of hours to get the last one out.

Do you have a URL for postfix?

vbg   www.postfix.org

   And is there a Solaris/Linux port?

yeah, sure. Wietse has done a world-class job with postfix, including a 
beautiful install routine.  IBM doesn't publish crap under their public 
software license and hire Venema for a sabbatical to do postfix.

The company I am doing this for is NT only, but may consider going for a 
Solaris
or Linux solution.   FreeBSD is not even on the radar.

If they look up at yahoo, or use Hotmail, then FreeBSD is on their radar. vbg

They'd rather spend 10k for an NT solution rather than pick up a better 
freeware product.  Gotta love cube life.

f@rthe@ds.  Free doesn't mean junk.  But I guess for the cubists, it's just 
pearls before swine.

If I were you (ouch!), I'd throw protoytpe together a FreeBSD machine with 
postfix (out of pocket: $0.00, skunkworks!!), a celeron 400 or better, and 
get Marcelo Frutig's tag for talking to serverobjects' ASPQmail ($150).

CFMail has such notoriety, for so long (see this list and the forums), that 
I can't believe anyone would ever consider putting it the head-end of such 
a huge mail project, esp with all the money you're spending for tail-end of 
LSMTP and its hw platform (and its maintenance costs). If the prototype 
give results, then ask them to buy you a Solaris license.  Wietse Venema 
has some tools for pumping tons of mail into postfix.  It is a very hot 
MTA.  You could have roomful of PIII's running postfix in parallel, giving 
you great redundancy, and just have CF/ASPQmail spread the output over the 
MTA outgoing farm.

I've got an idiot's How-To for installing FreeBSD and then postfix, if 
you're interested, as part of my IMGate anti-spam project.

Has anybody done any speed tests to determine how many emails CFMAIL can
send in an hour?

If CFMAIL's outgoing volume is insufficient, I would recommend having 
CFMail's SMTP client dump all outgoing mail on a local ip (no DNS lookups 
by CFMAIL) where a mail gateway running an efficient and reliable MTA like 
postfix would do the dirty work of actually delivering the mail.

Asking a production CF server, I assume it's doing lots of other CF 
applications, to do volume mail delivery seems to be counterproductive and 
is certainly unnecessary.

RE: Speed of CFMAIL

2000-04-05 Thread Dan G. Switzer, II

Chris,

It really varies. At a previous job, we used to use CF to send all our mail
blasts. When we first started, we were using a very sluggish NT-based DNS
server-at best we'd get out 6-10K of messages an hour. When we switched over
to a unix-based DNS system (which was even based 2000 miles away) we were
able to bump it up to about 20-30K messages an hour. The mail server also
has something to do with it as well. We actually set up an independent mail
server just for mass mailings (we were using Imail for NT at the time-not
sure how that compares to LSMTP.)

I know your looking for something concrete, but it really all depends on the
speed of the mail and DNS servers you're running and how many connections
they can handle. I'm sure you're hardware's just fine ('cause I know were
you work :),) so it really depends on the mail and DNS servers.

RE: Speed of CFMAIL

2000-04-05 Thread Chris Evans

I'm not worried about how fast mail can get delivered, or DNS resolution, or
any of the other factors that are on the mail server itself.  The mail
server we are using can handle anything CF can throw at it.

I'm more interested in how fast CF can spool the messages and feed them off
to the mail server.  All of the limitations folks have posted so far have
been limitations on the mail server.

I think I'll set up a test here and see what I can find out.  I'll post the
results when I get done.  Now my only problem is setting up a temporary
mailbox to hold 50,000 messages. grin

ok, so your taking the non-CF smtp gateway approach, good.

CFMAIL (or any another CFSMTP client tag) can send directly to an ip 
address (no DNS lookups?  That would be bummer, a tremendous waste of time, 
if it couldn't.

8 / 3600 gives 45 ms per msg at the LSMTP level so they must be 
spawning a ton of smtp clients to arrive at that rate, 2 million / day.  ho 
hum for Unix land and the kind of smtp MTA's on that platform.

Does CFMAIL spawn any number other than one SMTP process per CFMAIL execution?

Dan's 10,000 / hour is just one msg per 350 ms approx, but it sounds like 
Dan was doing DNS lookups with CFMAIL so if you can get "CF_SMTP" to dump 
on LSMTP's ip address directly, then you ought to be able to get much 
better than 350 ms.

Is LSMTP's SMTPD server as efficient and multi-tasking as it SMTP 
client?  ie, can it "take it" and well as "dish it out".

CFMAIL (or any another CFSMTP client tag) can send directly to an ip
address (no DNS lookups?  That would be bummer, a tremendous waste of time,

LSMTP handles the DNS lookups, using DNS caching.  The product is licensed
per simultaneous threads, but we have it limited to 200. Mail messages are
stored in RAM rather than individual files, so you lose a lot of I/O
overhead.  It also does connection pooling, so common mail servers like AOL
keep a constant connection while there is mail to send.  It's a very fast
MTA.

I guess the real question will be what work has to be done by CF, and how
fast can it do that work?   It sounds as though that is the real question.
I'll ask the magic 8-ball (and do some testing).

While testing out my CFMAIL box, I see a disturbing trend.  The mail spooler
sends out 100 messages from the spool, waits 60 seconds, sends out another
100 messages, and so on until the spool is empty. This means it takes 10
minutes to send out 1000 messages.

Is this a configuration I can change?  This is very very slow.

of, course, but can CFMAIL deliver to an LSMTP's ip.ad.re.ss without doing

hmm, I bet that' one expensive piece of software, LSMTP.

And I bet postfix with FreeBSD's softupdates filesystem and desintation 
sorting could come damn close to LSMTP, and do it for free, with as many 
SMTP clients as your memory could hold, and it that wasn't enough, do it 
all again on a 2nd, 3rd, etc, PC, giving you n-way MTA delivery redundancy, 
which is absolutely necessary with that many mail msgs to get out.

The email business is as fascinating as DNS workings.

When we want to send out tons of mail we use iMS (please - flame me
off-list
if this seems like gratuitous advertising).  There are several advantages:

snip
You can have just the iMS POST Server (the server that sends mail) and use
the cfx_imsmail tag to pump mail into the server.  The tag supports plain
text, multiple attachments, html text, RFC822 attachments, etc

Howie,

Could you provide links to the iMS package and the CFX_IMSMail tag?  I
couldn't find the tag on the Allaire gallery, and I'd like to investigate
using this option for my batch email needs.
