Can you recommend the best way of checking the email first?... CFMX does not provide the same function that CFMAIL uses to validate. I have ran into many instances where tags from the CF Exchange pass emails (ISEmailResult, etc), and CFMAIL MX crashes.
I agree with those of you who call this a BUG.
1. CFMAIL worked on previous versions regardless of fubared emails. Go ahead an allow CFMAIL tag checking for apps written after MX 6.1, but default it to not if it is not specified. It is not backward compatible.
2. It does "Crash" ColdFusion. It does not literally stop the service, but it invokes error handling, which, to the fat-fingered end user, is a crash.
3. CFMail DEMANDS a properly formatted email. But CFML does not provide the same function to test the same way it does.
