Jenny, I am going to assume that you have tried to cfdump and abort in the cfcatch to see what the message contains. Failing that I do know that some of these messages have hidden characters and will not match even if you try.
I don't have the link handy at the moment, but I did write a blog about this sort of thing some months ago.
