Yes, you are correct, to write a raw post you'd need something like CFX_RawSocket (http://www.iexp.com/products/cfx_rawsocket/docs.cfm) sorry, I was very disjointed last night in regards to CFHEADER ... Simply trying to think of a way to post raw HTTP data using CFML and for some reason thought CFHEADER would be the logical choice.
Thanks for straightening that out Dave.

What are your > thoughts on that? I don't know what you mean by "writing a raw HTTP POST from your data" - you'd need some way to open a socket, send text to the socket, wait for a response, and process that response (to oversimplify the process a bit). There's no CFML command that will do that, beside CFHTTP and CFINVOKE (which isn't usable for generic HTTP communication, only SOAP over HTTP).
