No... Simply just do a cfloop around your cfmail and use the spool attribute and away you go. I doubt you will have a problem with your isp, but if you do then you can always ask them to filter your traffic through... But that is extreme case gone bad, which I doubt will happen. On 5/12/07, Joel

It depends on their spam rules, some isp's spam filters can see it as a mass mailout and consider you as a spammer. Its very rare but it can happen... Same as multiple email address in the fields can also be flagged as being spam as well. On 5/11/07, Joel Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > An

Andrew-- That is a very good point; I had not thought of that. Why would an ISP block an email sent from a loop, if each "to:" field is unique and the cc: and bcc: are blank? Just curious, as I have very little knowledge of those issues. Thanks! >I would be doing a loop, and I would also ask

I would be doing a loop, and I would also ask what version of CF if its CFMX6+ then cfmail its ok to use. But god forbid, I wouldn't use more than one email address for something like this in any one field To:, CC: or even BCC: The reason being and its very simple, you could be seen as a mass mail
