why not just use the pop services?  Most servers allow you to query for mail
headers without downloading the actual message itself.  You might be able to
do this through CFPOP (never used it, so I'm not sure).  If not, then you
will need to look into the POP or SMTP protocols, or another tool/component.

Depends on the Email Server's Configuration. Its not as common to be able to
do
that nowadays as it used to be. Most of the time Email Administrators are
going
to have the vrfy command disabled on the email server.
