I've been doing pretty much the same thing for years with CF 4.5.1sp2, and recently 6.1.  Neither CF version notices the load, although to be fair I do throttle down the speed they get fed to the server (which is shared by several clients, many of which have membership mailing lists) to something like 3600 per hour per mailing.

My understanding of CF 6.1's mail improvements are that the benefits really shine on genuinely BIG stuff.

With that said, I tested out Infusion a few weeks back while I was evaluating whether or not to add a dedicated SMTP engine for those mailers.  Infusion was really a stellar product.

Or turn of the file-system cache in the CF administrator. You'll
potentially lose some performace (if your template cache isnt' big enough),
and after cycling the server, it'll be a little slower, but certainly a
doable situation if the problem isn't worth getting a bigger disk.

You can change the directory in web.xml, but I'm not sure exactly how that's
going to work for you:

<context-param id="macromedia_context_2">
<param-name>coldfusion.compiler.outputDir</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/cfclasses</param-value>
<description>This is the directory where we will place compiled
pages. It must be relative to the webapp root.
</description>
</context-param>

I'm not sure whether the "webapp root" will refer to the root directory of
your web server, or whether it refers to the directory within CFMX which
contains WEB-INF.

If changing that doesn't work for you, you can always just create a symbolic
link, I suppose:

As an alternative to setting up CFMX as a J2EE app on SunONE, you might be
able to just run the servlets you want through CFMX, too.

In the SunONE GUI, there's an option to create a new server. I don't
remember what it's called, but it was fairly easy to find. I couldn't
actually do it, though, since I was running the developers' version of
SunONE, which was a bummer - you can create as many servers as you like with
JRun's developers' version.

When installing CFMX, you'd want to pick the option that lets you create a
WAR or EAR file. I forget which one is the preferred format for SunONE, but
it's documented on the Macromedia site:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/j2ee/cfmxj2ee_s1as_deploy.html

In IE, windows opened from another IE instance run in the same
process as the parent. They share cookies. However, windows
opened from a link to the iexplorer executable run as separate
processes. They don't share session cookies.
All FireFox windows share the same process and the same cookies.

We routinely use CF5's CFMAIL for mailings to over 100,000 recipients. For
something like a monthly newsletter it's not unnecessary to send them all at
once, so we've developed ways of pacing the output to a couple thousand every
5 minutes for a period of several hours.

Have to? No, not at all. Many people have continued to use CF Studio for
CFMX development, it's just an editor. Homesite+ comes with
DreamweaverMX but it's basically just a new name, new icon and a few
non-critical updates to the previous CF Studio version.

Just as a general FYI, scheduling templates to run thru IE via the Windows task scheduler -- assuming a Win machine of course -- changes this.

c:\progra~1\intern~1\iexplore.exe http://123.456.789.012/foo/bar.cfm

called either directly in the scheduler or from within a batch file will do the trick.

Dreamweaver has HomeSite+ in it, which is basically today's iteration of CFStudio.  DW is as much or *less* than Studio's price was.  I got an upgrade yesterday for about US$200 from MM.  I'm not sure what full retail is.

Haven't had time to do much more than put in my editor fonts/colors.

I've used the scheduler since it was first put into CF (even wrote a chapter
on it) and I've never had a problem. Other have had problems that have been
hard to trace. If your going to use it follow a few simple rules.
1. The template being run should be able to run from an url without a
problem.
2. Test the template using CFHTTP to make sure it works
3. The scheduler is NOT a web browser so things like cookies, javascript
actions, etc. will not happen. Be aware.
4. Be careful setting up the time. It's easy to want something running every
hour and have it run once a day instead.

Les,

I believe it depends on the database.  I have seen queries work this way on
some and break on others.

I think that the best way to do it would be to change your order by line to:

order by (69.1 * (longitude = 104.825814))

If you're using CFMX 6.1, you might just try it out before using an external
package, as CFMX 6.1 seems to be able to send mail pretty well. That said,
if you do want an external package, IMS has worked very well for me in the
past.

Right now, you're creating a struct named 'myObj' containing two fields
(listID and memberStatus), then immediately overwriting it with your web
service object, then calling a method on the web service, failing to
pass in the required parameters

You need this:

<cfset myObj =
createObject("webservice","http://www.truthwebdesign.com/com/siteManager

<cfset lists = myObj.getMembers(4, 1)>

cf-talk@...

Right now, you're creating a struct named 'myObj' containing two fields
(listID and memberStatus), then immediately overwriting it with your web
service object, then calling a method on the web service, failing to pass in
the required parameters

You need this:

<cfset myObj =
createObject("webservice","http://www.truthwebdesign.com/com/siteManager
/mailingList.cfc?wsdl")>
<cfset lists = myObj.getMembers(4, 1)>
<cfdump var="#lists#">

Cheers,
