• Sending Mail And Monitoring Bounce Backs With ColdFusion And Postmark

  Posted on Apr 20, 2010 at 2:33 AM

  It's a combination, ie. subject is partly used to deduce bouncetype, as are specific codes that are included in the body that is returned.

  I'm actually working on something semi related right now where I'm looking to insert contacts into a TO: field from a list of pre-defined contacts, kind of like in Mac Mail/gmail etc. You don't happen to have any tips on how to do this the slickest do you?
