This is it:

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


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

Okay, now tell us what your host on the remote server said when you asked
them to check the server's system logs.

Thanks,

You may have the same problem I am experiencing where FP adds a number to
some of the form field names. It will make the field "keyword" to be
"keyword1" and my form now doesn't recognize the field and I have ot manually
edit out the numbers. Look at the form in the "code view" and see if that is
the problem. You can manually edit the numbers out there.

If that happens look for other fields in the same form with the same
name, or for multiple forms without names containing the same field
name - field names must be unique within a form. If there are
multiple forms on a page, then the same will happen unless the forms
have unique names.

All the forms on the pages have unique names. The same form appears on all
the pages of the site, however. It's a newsletter sign-up. All the forms on
the site seem to be having this probelm. Forms on other sites on the same
server seem ok though.
Any ideas?

I can't find the keyword field...maybe that's the problem...can youlook at it
for me?
I am a real novice. Thanks.

Explain what you mean by keyword field
If you are looking for the field name to enter on your confirm page it is: T1
(the only field in your form example below)
But your problem may be you are trying to send mail to an email address that is not at your domain
- many hosts will not allow that , check w/ them
- also make sure they have Email transport enabled for the site under the FP SE
