In my experiences, if there is nothing preceding a CF variable in a 
cfmail, then it doesn't recognize the formatting.  I combat this by 
putting dashes (- #City#) before so that it knows to drop down.  There 
may be a more elegant way of doing it, but that's how I resolve it.  
Something like this.

NAME:           #Form.name#
ADDRESS:      
- #Form.address#
- #Form.city#, #Form.state#  #Form.zip#
PHONE:          #Form.phone#
EMAIL:          #Form.email#

  Subject: cfmail formatting


  I have the following snippet of code that goes with a cfmail statment;

  
--------------------------------------------------------------start------
--------------------------------------------------------
  BILLING INFO:
  NAME:           #Form.name#
  ADDRESS:        #Form.address#
                           #Form.city#, #Form.state#  #Form.zip#
  PHONE:          #Form.phone#
  EMAIL:          #Form.email#
  
----------------------------------------------------------------end------
-------------------------------------------------------

  and my question is why does the email that comes in look like;

  
--------------------------------------------------------------start------
--------------------------------------------------------
  BILLING INFO:
  NAME:   Jordie Fike
  ADDRESS:        P.O. Box 2560 Kill Devil Hills, NC 27948
  PHONE:  252-441-6698
  EMAIL:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  
----------------------------------------------------------------end------
-------------------------------------------------------

  instead of like;

  
--------------------------------------------------------------start------
--------------------------------------------------------
  BILLING INFO:
  NAME:   Jordie Fike
  ADDRESS:        P.O. Box 2560
                   Kill Devil Hills, NC 27948
  PHONE:  252-441-6698
  EMAIL:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  
----------------------------------------------------------------end------
-------------------------------------------------------

  i.e why does my return after the address and before the city 
disappear? If 
  I put text (CITY:) in front of the #Form.city# variable then it keeps 
the 
  return, any ideas? I can fix it if I set TYPE=HTML, but rather than 
putting 
  a band-aid on the cut I'd rather figure out why it's bleeding.
