Yeah CF is acting as the sender... just like in this message my laptop is the sender.
The IP address that should get set for the SPF is the actual SMTP server that Coldfusion is handing off to. What is the reason for the rejection? If it is content based then well you are up a creek :-)... if it is because there is no PTR then the SMTP server you are sending from is the only one that needs a PTR Now the question is are you spooling your email or going straight to the mailservers? I would suggest spooling that way you have a proper SMTP server that is talking to the outside world. J.J.
