Actually it is just a composed email within the CF file in a CFEMAIL with
type=HTML. Like I said, it works great most of the time, but there are
those times that it just looks ugly. I have since stripped the HTML tags
out and most the email software interprets the http://www.something.com as a
link without the tags. For pretty purposes I may leave it like that and
those who don't get the link will have to cut and paste until I figure out
how to make everyone happy.
