Please explain what you mean by a "query for the to field".
Here's what I'm currently doing...
<cfoutput query="getEmails" group="cat_email">
        <cfmail to="#Cat_Email#" from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" subject="#subject#"
server="abc.net"                type="HTML">
                <cfmodule template="clear_newsletter.cfm">
        </cfmail>
</cfoutput>
Thanks,
Jason

Before you buy a program, you may want to try using cfmail's ability to 
use a query for the to field. You will see better performance than with 
a loop, it might just be enough.
