Using ColdFusion to write a web client

I've written standalone web clients in Perl and PHP so I know the fundamental concepts, but I was wondering if CF has this ability. Essentially what I need to do is POST a file to another server as a scheduled task.

If this is possible with CF, which tags should I be looking at?

Yes it's possible, and easy too. You can probably do it with less than 10 lines of code. Look at <cfschedule> and <cfhttp>.
