What is the best program language for mass email (PHP,  ASP, Coldfusion)?

I want to be able to send mass email (from a SQL db) with
stability and reliability.
I've used Coldfusion for some time (CFmail tag) and have not
been impressed.
It seems, at times, it has a mind of it's own, and is a
little unreliable, especially
when sending hundreds of emails at one shot. I'm not dogg'n
Codfusion,
that's what I program in, I just am looking for a method that
I can build on.
My question is this: What is the best and most reliable
coding when sending mass email?
Is it PHP, ASP, XML, Coldfusion....what?
You would think there has to be an optimum option out
there...right?
Thanks for the knowledge!

I've used CF to send out as many as 50,000+ emails in a
single blast and
haven't ever had any problems with it. Particularly with CF
Enterprise,
CF is an extremely high-performance mail generation engine.
Remeber
that CF itself doesn't send the mail so you're dependent upon
the speed
of your mail server as a large part of the equation as well.

  • What's the best program structure for multi-channel Averaged FFTs?

    I have been successfully using a 8-channel FFT analyzer using a separate Averaged FFT Spectrum (Mag-Phase) VI for each channel, but I now need to expand my channel count from 8 to 16. All channels are simultaneoulsy read in to a buffer to maintain phase relatioships. Do I need to have 16 copies of the Averaged FFT Spectrum VI in my diagram to maintain the averages of each channel or can I utilize one FFT VI somehow within a For Loop? If a For Loop can be used, how can the averaged spectrums be maintained for each of the 16 channels?

    You should be able to use a single FFT vi in a for loop. If your data is in a 2D array representation with each row representing a channel and you leave the indexing enabled you can pass your data array into the loop and it will strip off each row automatically. You could then pass each row of data to the FFT and pass the results out to the boundary of the for loop. This will then build an array containing the FFT results for each row (channel).

    Poor old Photoshop® is forever being put down when it comes to layout work, but it is perfectly capable, and can output a high quality print PDF the printer will be perfectly happy with.  OK you don't have the text flow between columns bells and whistles of InDesign and [spit] Publisher, but if you have a $10/month Photoshop/Lightroom subscription, instead of the $50/month full subscription, don't think you can't do a perfectly good flyer or poster.

    why don't you send your sequences straight to Compressor first, encode your movies as MPEG 2 and AC3 audio and import all assets in DVD studio PRO?

  • What's the best program for making a header containing rollover navigation links?

    I have all CS4 programs and I'm looking to make a header that contains an interactive rollover nav bar. I want the bar to be located within the header. What is the best program for creating the header and rollover buttons. I'm aware i could manipulate the images in other programs, but placement and rollover button creation is what I'm looking for. Thanks. I'm thinking maybe flash or fireworks?

    Spry can do this for you.  See some samples here:

    Or there are commercially available menu systems from the likes of companies like Project Seven, whom I would personally recommend:

    If you have used FreeHand before it is sill FreeHand of
    course - as long as it works in our OS and there are no new
    features you like to use.
    If you have documents with a lot of text elements and
    multiple pages InDesign may be the second best choice. For
    typography it is the best tool available.
    Illustrator is more for illustrations, although it seems that
    it has good control for type it is clumsy and there are a few major
    bugs that makes it unsuitable for body text.

  • What is the best program to Rip DVD with 5.1 audio for Mac Book

    I just purchased a Macbook Pro and want to rip DVD's. I want to retain the 5.1 audio tracks. What is the best program for this? Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    Sorry, but if you're referring to commercial and hence copy-protected video DVDs, breaking the copy protection, which would be necessary to copy the videos from the DVD and convert them, is illegal in the US (and other countries), so we're not allowed to discuss it here.   Some DVDs and Blu-Ray movies come with a "digital copy" that allows you to download a copy of the movie for use on computers. You might see if any of the DVDs you have come with such a feature.
    If these are home movies that you or someone has burned to DVD and hence are not copy-protected, Handbrake (freeware) is one of the more popular converters. I'm not sure how it handles 5.1 audio, though, if it will at all.
    Regards.

    What is the best program to use on Mac for editing, cropping photos from my computer. Looking for a free program that is good.

    If your needs are limited to those tasks then both Preview and iPhoto will fit the bill They are already on your Mac. There is a free download from Google called Picasa available here:
    http://picasa.google.com/
      It works much the in same manner as iPhoto. For some really heavy duty work there is GIMP available from SourceForge:
    http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/  Also a free download.

  • What is the best program or way to check an image on monitor screen (contrast/color etc)

    Hi,
    In ACR I adjust the image so that it looks OK for me.
    But there are a little differences in ACR and PS viewing the image (color, contrast etc).
    In programs like windows foto-viewer there is an other difference (relative to ACR and PS) >> images have more contrast and darker  than viewing in PS.
    An other program Irfanview shows the image with less color (saturisation).
    I have made a test print (in a photo centre), that image results in something between Irfanview and PS.
    Question:
    What is the best program or way to adjust the color / contrast etc so that I get an photo-image (on paper) that is the same as what I see on mij monitor screen.

    THANKS! STATION_TWO for the "over-correct-answer" you give................
    If I'm honest, the answer of Richard was for me enough to realize where I made a "wrong inference" in understanding color management.
    He is for me the best teacher in this case, I've learned something from him because he's talking on my level.
    By the way: the english language is not my native language... so my questions should have to be read with understanding of grammatical expressions from other languages >> ("The color management is know by me…").
    Again: Richard, in this case, read my question properly and has helped me on my way.

  • What is the best program to create a HD 1080p slideshow?

    A little advice on what the best program is for creating high quality HD (1080p) slide shows from hires jpegs.  I'm not at all interested in burning the slideshows to DVD.
    Until now I've used iMovie HD 6, iMovie '09, and  iPhoto on our mac mini that runs SnowLeopard. 
    With iMovie  HD 6 the transitions (cross dissolve and overlap) come out quite un-smooth look bad.  Also HD 6 will not do 1080p, only 1080i.
    With iMovie '09  photos that are portrait oriented (as opposed to landscape) often get poorly cropped. 
    iPhoto simply does not have the editing flexibility I need.
    I've tried the demo version of Fotomagico and although the resulting slideshow is stunning, on my machine the program is almost impossible to work with because of its sluggishness.  It is painfully slow in responding to all mouse moves. Dragging an image on the Stage is very difficult because the image lags behind the mouse so by the time the little green alignment guides come on to show center or edge alignment -- the image is already past that point.  There is also a huge lag changing images on the stage.   Also the spinning color wheel appears way too frequently.
    Photo to Movie, based on their website, Photo to Movie can produce HD quality video.  Does anyone have any experience in comparing Photo to Movie with any of the iMovies?
    Other than FCP, what do you folks think is best slideshow program for producing 1080p shows?

    Ditto what Matthew said about Photo to Movie.
    There are many ways to produce slide shows using iPhoto, iMovie or iDVD and some limit the number of photos you can use (iDVD has a 99 chapter (slide) limitation).
    If what you want is what I want, namely to be able to use high resolution photos (even 300 dpi tiff files), to pan and zoom individual photos, use a variety of transitions, to add and edit music or commentary, place text exactly where you want it, and to end up with a DVD that looks good on both your Mac and a TV - in other words end up with and end result that does not look like an old fashioned slide show from a projector - you may be interested in how I do it. You don't have to do it my way, but the following may be food for thought!
    Firstly you need proper software to assemble the photos, decide on the duration of each, the transitions you want to use, and how to pan and zoom individual photos where required, and add proper titles. For this I use Photo to Movie. You can read about what it can do on their website:
    http://www.lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php
    (Other users here use the alternative FotoMagico:  http://www.boinx.com/fotomagico/homevspro/ which you may prefer - I have no experience with it.)
    Neither of these are freeware, but are worth the investment if you are going to do a lot of slide shows. Read about them in detail, then decide which one you feel is best suited to your needs.
    Once you have timed and arranged and manipulated the photos to your liking in Photo to Movie, it exports the file to iMovie  as a DV stream. You can add music in Photo to Movie, but I prefer doing this in iMovie where it is easier to edit. You can now further edit the slide show in iMovie just as you would a movie, including adding other video clips, then send it to iDVD 7, or Toast,  for burning.
    You will be pleasantly surprised at how professional the results can be!
    To simply create a slide show in iDVD 7 onwards from images in iPhoto or stored in other places on your hard disk or a connected server, look here:

    Does the Macbook Pro have a program to run Windows built in? If not, what is the best program to do so. Purchasing a new Mac.

    No. The Mac does not have anything to run Windows
    You must install either virtualizrion software or use BootCamp to create a partition for Windows. Once you have done that then you must install Windows.
