This is probably not your case if you do not see anything in the CF logs, but I thought I would share my experience anyway.
After upgrading my PC to Windows XP sp2, my cfmail was automatically sent to undeliverable and wrote an entry in the error log to something like "Could not connect to SMTP host". After looking for hours for what sp2 could have broken, it turned out that my anti-virus software was also upgraded and there is a setting that disables any communication to port 25 to help prevent mass mailing worms. I unchecked the setting and has worked like a charm. Good Luck! >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/18 3:59 PM >>> Alrighty, I just let my Network Engineer know who's in charge of the Email server to check it out. I will let you know what we find. :) Thanks!

Remember that all CF does is hand messages off to your SMTP server, so if they're leaving CF successfully, CF did its job. I send out HTML emails all the time with full http:// URLs and image paths in them and they work fine.
