Actually, if you were interested in making a fair comparison, it would
look more like this:
<cfmail
to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
subject="">
#Form.FirstName# #Form.LastName# has request more information. Please
contact them at #Form.Phone#.
#Form.FirstName#
#Form.LastName#
#Form.Addr1#
#Form.Addr2#
#Form.City#
#Form.State#
#Form.ZIP#
#Form.Email#
#Form.Phone#
#Form.Comments#
#Form.NoMkt#
</cfmail>
It's still less lines and I like the way ColdFusion does it better, but
that would be a more accurate comparison. Of course, the ASP method can
be advantageous in a lot of situations.

Compared to this..............
<cfmail to="" from="" server="" subject="">some stuff here.....</cfmail>
there is no comparison, the only thing we need to do with asp is Port it
to CFML
so that our clients get what they deserve!

Use the right tool for the job. And if you have to ask if you should
keep
all your eggs in one basket then I have a bridge I'd like to sell you.

more e-mails I read in this list, the more I realize how powerful CF is,
but should I keep all my eggs in one basket so to speak? Any good
advice?
