Les:

So long as CF is authenticating against their mail server with a username
and password, it shouldn't matter what address is in the "From" header.
Make sure that CF logs in to the SMTP server with a valid username/password
combo (either set in the CF Administrator or as attributes of the CFMAIL
tag) and, assuming they haven't poorly configured their mail servers, the
email should go through fine.

Oftentimes, SMTP servers are configured to only accept messages with a
"From" header that includes the SMTP server's domain.  However, if the
server supports authentication (as they all should to better prevent Spam),
the authentication tends to override the previous requirement.
