Or do not use CF mail because it is so terrible. Get the free, at least for
a year, or purchase IMS mail poster, It has all of the tools that CFMAIL is
lacking and tags for CF for it.
I use it with the fusebox cfcontent tag to create the body. (See how I
pulled in back OT). Look at this code.
<cf_bodycontent name="emailbody">
<cfoutput>
<BODY bgcolor="white" topmargin="0" bottommargin="0">
<blockquote>
Dear Administrator,<br>
<p>A new user, #checkforuser.Title# #checkforuser.FirstName#
#checkforuser.LastName#, has requested an account. </p>
<blockquote>
#checkforuser.Address1#<br>
#checkforuser.City#, #checkforuser.State# #checkforuser.Zip#<br>
#checkforuser.Phone#<br>
#checkforuser.Email#<br>
</blockquote>
<hr>
-- Application Manager<br>
</blockquote>
</body>
</cfoutput>
</cf_bodycontent>
