I do the same. But because of the anti-spam measures on our server, we dont allow relaying. The only emails passed through our server have to be fully validated from an account on the server. So in the CFMAIL tag i have to put server, user, password as well, where user = a valid email account, and password = the password for that account.
You probably have the same situation. And sadly ColdFusion doesnt give any error message at all if it doesnt send an email. The only indication you get that your cfmail tag was wrong is that you dont get the one you send yourself. HTH.
