That's generally been my feeling... Though in context what I was getting at is that email headers aren't stored in a db-like structure where a new column would have to be created to hold data for a new header. >> ...

I think we should all start adding a random line to all our <cfmail> tags just for the hell of it. Choose from the following: <cfmailparam name="X-Men" value="classified"> <cfmailparam name="X-Chromosome" value="f-email"> <cfmailparam name="X-Ray" value="He was a nice guy."> <cfmailparam name="X-Husband" value="Alimony"> <cfmailparam name="X-Wife" value="Kill Me Now!"> <cfmailparam name="X-Ample" value="More than just enough."> >> I have a tough time reading anything the IETF write, >> but here's some info on RFC 2821 ( I think ) >> >> http://community.roxen.com/developers/idocs/rfc/rfc2821.h >> tml > That's the HTML version of the full RFC.
