Macintosh uses carriage return (CR) ASCII characters to designate the start
of a new line. Windows uses carriage return/line feed (LF) pairs. Unix, on
the other hand, uses just LFs.
I say this because what you may be experiencing is a symptom from developing
and deploying your application in a mixed environment. Without more
information about what OS your development workstation, Web server and mail
server are running, I can't explain exactly what is going on.
However, you could change your code to the following, and see if you don't
get the expected results:
<cfoutput query="get_Record" group="email">
<cfloop list="#strRecipients#" index="RecEmail">
<cfmail from="#email#" to="#RecEmail#" subject="SITA Proposal:
Downtownrail.org" BCC="#strBCCed#">
#Chr(13)##Chr(10)#
#text##Chr(13)##Chr(10)#
#Chr(13)##Chr(10)#
Sincerely,
#namef# #namel##Chr(13)##Chr(10)#
#address1##Chr(13)##Chr(10)#
#address2##Chr(13)##Chr(10)#
#city#, #st# #zip##Chr(13)##Chr(10)#
</cfmail>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
This will ensure that every line is terminated with a CR/LF pair, which
should work in every environment. If this fixes your problem, then you may
want to post some details about your development and production
environments. Sometimes, correcting the issue is as simple as a checkbox in
the IDE (i.e. use Unix style end of line characters as opposed to windows).

Subject: CFMail Formatting Issues
Hello!
I've used <cfmail> several times without one error but now I have one that
seems a little strange.
When I send an email, the formatting is not showing up. I am sending it
regular text, not HTML. I realize that I could use the type=html to format
it but because of the type of people that the email is being sent to this is
not an option.
The code for sending the email is:
<cfoutput query="get_Record" group="email">
<cfloop list="#strRecipients#" index="RecEmail">
<cfmail from="#email#" to="#RecEmail#" subject="SITA Proposal:
Downtownrail.org" BCC="#strBCCed#">
#text#
Sincerely,
#namef# #namel#
#address1#
#address2#
#city#, #st# #zip#
</cfmail>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
I use the loop to loop through a list of recipients. Is there something
strange about what I'm doing?
This is the output in Entourage (mac version of outlook):
This is the first letter
that will be used to say that I support this proposal.
Sincerely,
Hamilton Here Ste 220 Sacramento, CA 95814
Any help would be appreciated!
