Thanks for the info Wil. I did read your blog, and my original design was coded exactly the way you specified using 2 mail parts (text and HTML) and specifying the type as HTML in the cfmail tag itself as seen below.
<cfmail to="#Candidates.EmailAddress#" from="#SysSettings.Postmaster#" subject="#Expired#" server="#SysSettings.MailServer#"> <CFMAILPART type="text"> Your Login ID: #Candidates.EmailAddress# #Candidates.CandidateID# #ExpiredContent.Text# </CFMAILPART> <CFMAILPART type="HTML"> #ExpiredContent.HTML# <p>Your Login ID is #Candidates.EmailAddress#</p> </CFMAILPART> </cfmail> I was noticing that the HTML part of the message was raising my SPAM score. Many of the messages we send are purely informational and do not require the niceties of HTML display formatting so in an effort to reduce the SPAM score I simply removed the HTML part of the cfmailpart tag, leaving the text cfmailpart in place. This is when my problem started. It appears as though including a cfmailpart of type text without an HTML counterpart was causing the problem. I am sad to say that the only fix I could find was to do something close to your example of the improper use of the cfmail tag. If I simply include the mail message with no cfmailpart tags and do not specify type="HTML" in the cfmail tag my message is displayed correctly, or at least as I intended it to. I do like your use of the textMessage function. I may incorporate something like that in my system. I will definitely help cut down on redundant coding.
