You didn't post enough code, but my presumption is that you simply have a
CFTRY around your CFHTTP, and within that, a CFCATCH that sends the email.
By default, your page will continue executing after CFCATCH, and if you
don't have anything below that that'll work without the CFHTTP succeeding,
you should probably abort the processing of the page:
<cftry>
... problem code here ...
<cfcatch type="whatever">
... your response to the problem ...
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
.... the rest of your page, which will execute after the tried code works, or
after the CFCATCH works ...
