of "things", and then create combinations thereof. Pass in the set of
attributes CFMAIL can accept, and let the machine write all the files for
you. It can even write the logic for selecting the right file, if you want,
though that statement is going to be a BEAST, and probably slower to execute
than processing the dynamic template (at least on CF5).
