Form Error - Not Emailing

[Dave]

I have a simple form in FP2003 - a submit button that I want to send via
email (the form will get more sophisticated when I get this to work).

I have the email address entered into the appropriate field, but when I hit
okay, I get a message that states:

This form cannot be configured to send results via email....

I click no, so it will not remove the email address (there is a remote
server I will publish this to and it has FP running - it is a Windows Server
2003 with IIS 6 running and FP extensions installed/activated/displaying my
website).

I am sending to a yahoo account just for testing, but the message is not
being delivered.

Is there something I need to check on the server? Am I doing something stupid?

Thanks in advance.

It won't work properly until you publish it to the server with FrontPage Extensions.

....and, the remote server must have the forms to email transport properly
enabled and configured.

Thanks for the input - this form is working perfectly on the site. I went to
adjust another form (previously a cgi-delivered form on a linux box that
worked) and am receiving this error:

FrontPage Error.
User: please report details to this site's webmaster.


Webmaster: please see the server's application event log for more details.

I checked the event viewer's app log and see nothing related to front page
(or IIS). This FP site is on the same server as the original message, so the
extensions are on the server. Any ideas?

I have more info - Since I have two sites on the same server (one able, the
other not able to use a form), I copied this form to the working site, and it
failed, so something must be wrong with the code generated? Here it is:
