try,
<cfset emailbody = '#form.body#'>
<cfmail to="x" from="x" subject="x" server="x" query="x">
#emailbody#
</cfmail>
I didn't test it, but I think It should work.

Subject: RE: Customizing Email with CFMail
No, actually I'm passing the variable through a form. There's a textarea
named "body" and in that text area I want to be able to enter: "Hello,
#name# .... blah, blah" and when the form is submitted it runs:
<cfmail to="x" from="x" subject="x" server="x" query="x">
#body#
</cfmail>
but inside the variable BODY there is #name# that I want to get evaluated by
the server so that it pulls the #name# out of the query that CFMAIL is
looping over and insert the users name into the email.

I'm not sure I understand your problem, but the fact that you mentioned
URLEncode makes me guess that you are doing something like
http://www.url.com/indec.cfm?variable=#name#
and then putting #URL.variable# in your mail form?
If this is the case, make sure you have something like:
<cfoutput>http://www.url.com/indec.cfm?variable=#name#</cfoutput>

Subject: Customizing Email with CFMail
| I'm making a small bulk mail application so we can notify registered users
| of various updates to our site, etc. I have a small form with a subject
line
| and a body block (textarea) and I want to be able to enter #name# to refer
| to the user by name. The CFMAIL loops over a database where #name# exists
as
| a field. If I enter #name# into the <cfmail> block it works fine, but when
I
| pass #name# through the text area it sends the actual text '#name#' with
the
| email ...
|
| What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to do this? Do I have to URLEncode
the
| #name# being passed?
|
| Thanks in advance.
