Hi Ian, Cfmail isn't a mail client. It purely sends whatever you want it to send.
To acheive what I think you are trying to acheive, prepare the content of your email using a text editor (such as fckeditor) where you can format the text with fonts, etc, then have cfmail send that content. (It's quite a nice way of doing a newsletter application as I have here, or whatever else you want to send.) Fckeditor will provide you with htmp coded content, so pick the type = "html" opting in the cfmail params. For the record, I've also used the replace function to personalise the content. eg. replace(myContent, "[firstName]", "#mytable.firstname#", "All") Hope this helps, Jenny -----Original Message----- From: Ian Skinner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 April 2008 19:00 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: <cfmail...> and fonts.

That's what I thought, but then the documentation for my mail client threw me for a loop with this passage: "This font change is only in effect while you read the item. If you close the item and re-open it, the font returns to the Windows system default font or the *font that the sender composed* the item in." As you may note, I can not change my client to show messages in a mono-space font without overriding my entire Windows system default. I am not impressed with this organizations choice of a mail client. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:304864 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
