CFMAIL - expiring email

[akuo]

Okay, sometimes the customer is too techie.

In Microsoft Outlook, there is a way to make a sent email to expire after a certain specified date/time (View --> Options --> Expires After...). So, my customer wants a way so that emails that are generated via an ColdFusion application to expire after a date. Does anyone know of a way?

Thanks in advanced!

I haven't tried this myself but, it looks to me like the expiration date in an Outlook email is handled by a header that looks like:
Expiry-Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2009 16:00:00 -0600

You could try adding an Expiry-Date header using CFMAILPARAM.
