so I put back both cferror tags one for request and one for exception. I forced a db error and I see the dump from the sendError page, but when I wrap a cfmail around it, I get nothing but the text from the errorPage.

When you said you have both and request and exception values... did you mean you have two CFError tags in application.cfm, one with type="request" and the other with type="exception"? Maybe the type="exception" template itself contained an error and never got to the mail generation part. To be sure, in your development environment: 1. Purposefully put in some wacky code to generate errors 2. For now, comment out the <cferror type="request"...> 3. Try cfdump and cfabort in the type="exception" error template, from top down, until you get to the CFMail tag. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
