No, stay away from CFPOP and CFSMTP whenever possible. They are slow
compared to Imail itself for mail functions. It's far easier and faster to
reformat the output results from Imail via CFHHTP or better yet CFX_HTTP.

Depends if you are comparing bicycle wheels to dump truck wheels or not.
Imail web serves a single purpose. By implementing CF you can do pretty
much anything you want with Imail and still integrate it into other
projects seamlessly. How about a website admin interface for end users that
also allows mail admin, ftp admin and etc. from a single place with a
consistant interface and single logon? Etc., etc.
