Unfortunately, we can't get the powers-that-be to completely forgo all HTML in the e-mail messages. They are insisting on a graphic logo and probably some heading and emphasis (<H?>|<strong>|<em>) markup as well as clickable anchors.
I know this would be easy to do with a ColdFusion <cfmail> tag by setting the "type" parameter to "HTML". My question is does this generate proper multi-part mine type e-mails (like I REALLY know what that means). But I think that is what I am trying to ask about. Do HTML messages sent by the ColdFusion mail tag contain a proper "text only" segment? Are they supposed to? Is this a non-issue that I don't need to worry my pretty little head about?
Pointers to the proper standards that I should understand would be nice. Links to information on how ColdFusion fits into the standards are even better. Correcting my understanding of ColdFusion and e-mail in "... for Dummies" language best yet.
TIA
