It's also a rather paraphrased definition of what I got from someone
over lunch who isn't all that technical. :)

Is the failto attribute considered equivalent to setting the envelope-from?
If so, when we go to MX (probably a good 6 weeks away), we could do
our <cfmail> like this:
<cfmail from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
username="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" password="whatever"
failto="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">
[assuming that our mail server now requires SMTP authentication, where
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a real account on it]
?
And, that should conceivably get past spoof detection? (Assuming the
receiving clients have their mail set up right. This particular client
is a Fortune 500 company, so I would hope they know what they're
doing. :) )
(The only other time I've had to do something like this was on
CrystalTech which had it set up differently [which we discussed at
length earlier this week]. So, I haven't had to deal with this issue
in the past)
Thanks!
