  Use a HTML table to display it in the email.

  You can just use plain HTML in any email send with cfmail, just set the
type
  of the email to HTML in the cfmail tag..

  Instead of:

  Faircloth, Rick / 204 Windsor Drive / Hinesville / Feb 13, 2004
  Martin, John / 205 Way Lane / Midway / Mar 15, 2004

  Have it display like this:

  Martin, John   205 Way Lane Midway   Mar 15, 2004

  (Hopefully that's be lined up in this email!)

  It comes from code like:

  #AgentLastName#, #AgentFirstName# / #PropertyAddress# / #PropertyState# /

If you are using HTML email you can use a regular HTML table tag. If not you
can use lJustify() around each value to force it to use the same number of
characters. Of course then you need to email client to use a fixed width
font, but you can't control that.

Personally, I'd recommend using HTML.

CFMAIL supports HTML formatted messages.  You should be able to specify HTML
as the type and just create a table in the email.  Make sure the recipient
can read HTML formatted mail before you send it

You might choose to use HTML email formatted using tables.  For plaintext,
though, use the LJustify() function.  Something like this:

#LJustify(AgentLastName & ", " & AgentFirstName, 35)#
#LJustify(PropertyAddress, 30)#  #LJsutify(PropertyState, 30)#
#ExpirationDate#

Adjust the column width to suit your application.
