No need to apologize.  Let avoid the whole QA vs. Developer issue and lay out 
the ugly details of the situation. 

The specific incident that started my search was that during testing, our 
pre-production environment sent out emails to real customers.  The database in 
pre-production starts out as a copy of our production database, and then has 
any alterations applied to it that are required by the release being tested 
(which is in itself a partial test of the roll-out plan).  When the scheduled 
jobs that are part of this application were enabled, they started sending 
emails using the contact information in the database.

My initial reaction was to simply disable CFMAIL by pointing it to a bogus SMTP 
server.  That would have, however, prevented QA from testing the email 
functionality of the application, hence my search for a proxy that would 
capture the emails for later inspection / validation.
