Cfusion_VerifyMail

[WBJP01]

I'm finally converting from CF5 to MX 6 I have discovered that the
Cfusion_VerifyMail() function is no longer supported. Does anyone know of
another way to determine if the mail server is up before attempting to send an
email?

this should work for you:

<cfscript>
factory = CreateObject("java", "coldfusion.server.ServiceFactory");
smtpMailServer = factory.MailSpoolService.getServer();
if (Len(smtpMailServer)) {
isMSup = factory.MailSpoolService.verifyServer();
}
else {
isMSup = 0;
}
if (isMSup) {
MailRoot = factory.RuntimeService.getRootDir() ;
}
else {
vErrorMessage = "The emailserver #smtpMailServer# is not up." ;
}

</cfscript>

Check out the new Admin API in CFMX 7. I think we have this function in
there.

Sorry I don't have CFMX7 (neither does the OP)..so I hacked at it since
CFMX6 didn't give us an admin API AFAIK ;-)
