CFMAIL bulk email sending

Asked by pigmentarts in ColdFusion Studio, ColdFusion Application Server, Cold Fusion Markup Language

Tags: , , , ,

Hi all,

Emailing my subscribers... at the moment I query my database and loop each record then send out an email to each using CFMAIL tag.

My questions are...

1) what happens when my client base grows, could the above method fall on its face, say if I had thousands of emails?    

2) Last, I want a loading message, i.e. "10% done" possible? (cfflush maybe?)

PS sorry if I do not reply to this today I am offline until tomorrow morning, but would be grateful for any of your ideas in the mean time.

thanks
