pointed me at the root cause - the destination folder did not exist. The
copy or move operation does not create the directory if it does not exist.
Therefore, I had to use cfdirectory first, and then the move operation works
fine.
Thanks for the help.

It could be that there is a file lock involved which will result in the move
failing (as its a copy then delete). Change the code to do a copy instead
of a move to see if it initially fixes the current problem you are having.
If it does then I would suggest that you do this instead but setup a
schedule that cleans out the directory every now and then (based on
timestamps so that it doesnt play with a file thats being used) so that the
directory doesnt get bloated and fill up the server.

Subject: CFFile Move Error
I am working with a script that interacts with a mail server, reading
messages from a specific POP account and processing them. The problem I am
running into is dealing with the message attachments. In the <CFMAIL tag, I
store all attachments in a central folder with unique file names. Then
during the processing, I am attempting to move them to different folders and
rename them back to their original file names.
I am getting the following error though on the <CFFILE tag while attempting
to move and rename the files:
'Attribute validation error for tag CFFILE. The value of the attribute
source which is currently "D:\attachments\fd4.dtd", is invalid.'
However, if I copy this file path and paste it into the run window on the
server (start -> run), the server returns the file - i.e. the path is valid.
What am I missing here?
------------------------------
<cfloop from="1" to="#listLen(archiveMessages.attachments, ' ')#"
index="attachmentIndex">
<cfset currentAttachmentFile =
listGetAt(archiveMessages.attachmentFiles, attachmentIndex, ' ')> <!---
original, unmodified attachment file name only (no path info) --->
<cfset origAttachmentFileName = listGetAt(archiveMessages.attachments,
attachmentIndex, ' ')> <!--- unique attachment file name including current
path location --->
<cffile action="" source="#currentAttachmentFile#"
destination="#variables.baseFilePath#\#friendlyUID#\#origAttachmentFileName#
"> <!--- rename the attachment back to the original file name and move to
folder unique to parent message --->
</cfloop>
*** The list functions are parsing the attachment list using the TAB string
as deliminators - that is just not appearing in the HTML message.

Thanks,
