how do I send mail in action script using the   coldfusion.service.Mail, class.

I've set up my confix in MXML and then try this:

var mail:Mail = new Mail();
                        mail.server = conf.cfServer;
                        mail.to = "nikos@test.co.uk";
                        mail.subject = "FX ";
                        mail.content = emailText;
                        mail.from= "noreply@test.co.uk";

how do I send the mail?

I've never needed to use this feature, but according to the docs, you're probably after the execute() method:

Awsome

I get an error:

Unable to invoke CFC - A problem occurred when attempting to deliver mail." faultCode="Server.Processing" faultDetail="This exception was caused by: javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: secret port: 25;
  nested exception is:

This is strange because my coldfusion server "secret" has the mail section set up in the administer.

why would the mail be trying to send mail from "secret"

    <mxml:Config id="conf" cfServer="secret" 
        serviceUserName="flexUser" servicePassword="QWE3" />

  <mxml:Mail id="clientMarginChangeEmail"
        server="{conf.cfServer}"
        to="nikos@test.co.uk"
     
        subject="FX Option Margins changed"
        from="noreply@test.co.uk"
        type="html" charset="utf-8" mailerId="CF" priority="1"
        timeout="60" useTLS="true" wrapText="5"
        result="handleResult(event)"
        fault="handleError(event)"
    />

Hmmm... where would you expect your CF server to send email from?

Can your CF server connect to your SMTP server?  And can you send email from it (ie: with a <cfmail> tag)?
