How does the cfmx mail spool work, does it try to open a connection for each message in the spool concurrently or does it try to deliver the spool one at a time?

having some trouble with cfmx mail occasionally not delivering a message or two in a group...

i.e. an action triggers 5 emails, only 4 of them show up, addresses are correct, etc. the only log error is "Moved undelivered mail: Mail10950.cfmail to /opt/coldfusion8/Mail/Undelivr directory" .....  which basically tells me nothing useful [mail logging is set to debug]

my guess is that cfmx is trying to open too many smtp connections to the server,...
