A pretty complete example can be found here:

http://www.fordwebs.com/cfform.cfm

Which also includes client-side and server-side validation. The only thing not included is anti-spambot code, which you may want to think about implementing as well if your form starts getting hit by them.

Ok, read the documentation on the <cfmail...> tag.


<cfmail
to="email@to.com"
from="email@from.org"
subject="This is as hard as it gets">
I would just like to let you know that I am responding to #form.name#
about the #form.widget# you would like delivered to #form.address#.
</cfmail>

There are some details about how to configure ColdFusion to talk to a
mail server, but I'll leave to the documentation if it is required.
