that's a mail server-dependent feature. not all mail servers automatically
validate the sender.

Hi,
Sorry for the earlier message, my fingers were going faster than my brain...
My experience with mail servers is that they won't send mail without a valid
"From" address. This is how I take care of that.
<!--- Check User's Email Address --->
<CF_IsEmail EMAIL="#GetAward.ShipEmail#">
<CFIF ISEMAILRESULT>
<cfset Email = '#GetAward.ShipEmail#'>
<CFELSE>
<cfset Email = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'>
</cfif>
<!--- Send Mail --->
<cfmail to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
from="#Email#"
subject="ORDER - #12345"
bcc="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
type="HTML">
You can get the <CF_IsEmail> tag from the Developers Exchange.

Subject: CFMAIL problem
Hi All,
I am tring to send email with <cfmail> but I am facing
some problems. Some times it sends and some time it
does not send!
I am sure that all form variables are passed and they
are ok.
I used the following standard code:
<cfif IsDefined("SendIt")>
<cfmail from="#FORM.sEmail#"
to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
subject="#FORM.sSubject#"
type="HTML">
#FORM.sBody#
</cfmail>
<b>Done</b>
</cfif>
The word (Done) always appear but sometimes no email
could be received. It is not delay time. it is a real
problem.
any suggestions
