If there is only cfmailpart type=text, this results in coldfusion 7 generating a second empty text type multipart which messes up some clients. This is probably a bug. <br /><br />Content-Type: multipart/alternative; <br /> boundary="----=_Part_1_21745132.1202868812046"<br />X-Mailer: ColdFusion MX Application Server<br /><br />------=_Part_1_21745132.1202868812046<br />Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8<br />Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit<br /><br />Thought you might like this website...<br />(your text)<br /><br />------=_Part_1_21745132.1202868812046<br />Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8<br />Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit<br /> <br />------=_Part_1_21745132.1202868812046-- dorange 0 0 2008-02-12T18:42:09 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/00000299.htm#59669 Just a quirk when viewing emails in Thunderbird (1.5.0.9).<br /><br />If you only use cfmailpart type=text (ie dont include a cfmailpart type=html as well) the email appears blank when read. Viewing the message content shows that the content is in fact in the email but Thunderbird wont display it.<br /><br />If you leave cfmailpart out all together, it displays the text. <br /><br />If you use just type=html, or both type=html and type=text, it displays the text (as html).<br /><br />So, if you dont want to send any html, leave the cfmailpart tag out all together !<br /><br />I tested it with Outlook Express and it displays the message no matter what you do.<br /><br />Murray Murrah 0 0 2007-01-16T21:53:24 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/00000299.htm#36464 There's an extra > in the example: </cfmailpart>> should be </cfmailpart> LukewarmFusion 0 0 2005-07-06T09:17:28
