I could be wrong about what exactly the problem is that you're having, but
my guess is that you fell into the same trap I did when I first used
CFERROR. That is, I thought that when I specified a MAILTO attribute, that
the CFERROR page would send an email to that address. That is not the case.
All setting the MAILTO attribute lets you do is use that attribute's value
as an error variable in the CFERROR page, so that you could do something
like this within that page:
<A HREF="mailto:#Error.MailTo#">Notify system administrator</A>
It took me quite a while to figure that out, as I recall.
