I would go with a SMTP/POP3 agent that is more stable and feature rich than

You could force the user to type it out manually.
You could find, or write, some Java applet as a wysiwyg type of editor, and make it
so that it will pass the info
back info to your app as HTML.
You can't do this in ColdFusion alone. You will need a mail server somewhere in the
backend.
You may want to have a look at iMS. iMS turns your ColdFusion server into a
world-class mail server that utilizes CFML for all server logic. We have
