Claude it looks exactly the same set up as we have. For our system, you ahve to have you CFMAIL tag looking like this (and it'll probably be the same for you):
<cfmail to="clients email address" from="Mike Kear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" <--- i.e. some valid email address on this domain replyto="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <--- an address (any address) where i want the client's replies to go to subject="[AFP Webworks] the subject of the email" server="mail.afpwebworks.com" username="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <--- not the real one - but its part of the authentication password="password" > blah blah blah </cfmail> All these parameters are required as a minimum to send CFMAIL from our servers. The username and password must be a valid pair of authentication values for an email account on our server. The FROM or the TO email address must be a valid email address on our server (but need not be the same as the one used for authentication) In this way, i can have the web site generate emails sent to me, but coming "from" the client, so just hitting reply sends my reply to them. >From what you describe, i feel sure yours are set up the same way.
