I don't think that any of these methods is any worse than the old technique of running cfml.exe. They are all hacks. Personally, I would put it in custom tag, and use the <cfhttp> method. In fact, I don't think it is that bad. The only issues you might run into are DNS. Ive worked on systems where the servers are behind firewalls, and don't have access to their own names in DNS. It has the added bonus of being cluster invisible, or cluster visible, depending on what you need it to do. In the system I noted above, each server had a all the names of the other servers, and I could get an http call to hit all the other servers, or only one of them, etc etc. Does anyone know how to get outlook to do standard quoting. Ive set it up in the options, but it doesn't work. I think it is getting confused by the exchange server ( all outgoing emails are going to exchange ? ).
