Your two <> delimiters are the key. Just find the position of both of those
characters and use only what is between the <> chars. Like so..
<cfset emailAddress = "Bromby, Dylan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>">
<cfset startPosition = find("<" , emailAddress)>
<cfset endPosition = find(">" , emailAddress)>
<cfset lengthofEmail = endPosition - StartPosition>
<cfset realEmailAddress = mid(emailAddress, startPosition, lengthofEmail)>
I didn't test this but it should definately work. This also could be done
inline in your to="" parameter of your cfmail with refind() and regular
expressions if your feeling rather elegant :-)
