Daniel,

I'd dump your form contents just before your cfMail to check what
form.s_email contains.

For the second issue, you've specific type="HTML", which means you'll
need to use HTML to layout your text (use p or br tags for line
breaks).  If you want returns to be handled as line breaks, just
eliminate the type attribute.

Have a good afternoon,

Joe

To: CF-Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

ok, I needed to specify a server and another problem is that when I
went to check this through a web page, it was caching the mail
directory so I wasn't seeing updates.

Ok, so I have two more problems.  The more important of the two is
that when I grab the FROM email address from a form field, the mail
doesn't send (see the code below) but when I enter in an email address
directly into the FROM, the email sends.

Problem number 2 is more aesthetic.  The text that I gets entered
into the suggestion area may have returns in it, but when I get the
mail, it's just one long string.  Is there a cure for this?  I have
type=html right now.

<cfmail
       TO = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
       <!---FROM = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"--->
       FROM = "#Form.s_email#"
       SUBJECT = "Eatsmart Suggestion"
       TIMEOUT = "30"
       TYPE = "html"
       SERVER = "mail.umd.edu">
       #Form.suggestion#
</cfmail>________________________________
