The quick and dirty way would be on the user clicking some send button, the data is taken from the text area and a quick and dirty HTTPService call.
Something like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical"> <mx:HTTPService id="mailService" url=" http://localhost:8080/MailReceiver/emailer.jsp" method="POST" /> <mx:RichTextEditor id="emailContent"/> <mx:Button id="sendButton" click="mailService.send({email: emailContent.text})"/> <mx:TextArea text="{mailService.lastResult}"/> </mx:Application> That'll send the e-mail content as a POST variable to the receiving page - in my case, it was a quick JSP test page. In your case you'd just grab the email from the form scope and pass it to cfmail. Bear in mind that that's creating an open mail relay, you'd need to put some security of some sort in there (e.g. some sort of user login or get the Flex client to calculate something computationally that you know the result of, etc.) Hope that helps, Oliver Tupman.

Say I have a text area component and I want to have a button action to cfmail the contents of the text area component. How would I do that?
