with header information and such on it as well as a space for an SQL
statement to grab the names of the people to send to. We'd then feed
the .txt into some special mail program by making a terminal connection
and pasting the text. There was also an option to send the txt from a
trusted email address and it would process the rest. I'm just not sure
what the software was called but something along those lines would be
great for me. Then, I could manage the emails and lists through CF as
well as the specific list that an email was supposed to go out to and
then I could pass a single file over to the other server for processing.
Anyone know of something like that?

Each email we send is dynamic per a user's settings and options. If it
was static across the board I'd agree with you completely.
