Can Apache not handle the POST method? I am wrote CFM script to act as a "mailto" form handler, but it does not seem to work. I get the Error 405 mentioned in the title.

I think you need to configure mailto functionality before you can use it. You'll probably need to set up smtp server, e-mail address, etc.

Although I don't directly control that aspect of the server I use, how would it be enabled? Should I write a script in something other then CFM?

in httpd.conf. I've never tried to disable it before, but typical settingd for a directory will look like this:

<Limit GET POST>
Allow from ALL
</Limit>

If you've got something like <Limit POST> Deny from ALL</Limit> that may very well disable the psot method.
