How to Send Email Through JangoSMPT Via ColdFusion
The ColdFusion language includes libraries to send email through your SMTP server, the main protocol for sending messages over the Internet. You can use the "cfmail" ColdFusion tag with the JangoSMTP libraries to send email from your Web pages. The setup is similar to the normal SMTP code, but you must include the JangoSMTP library files in your ColdFusion file before you can use the functions for email.
