Form to e-mail, without server extensions?

Here's one commercial option that I used when I had a simlar problem: http://www.formmail.com

FrontPage 2003



My hosting service is running on Windows servers, but doesn't support
FrontPage Server Extensions. However, they have support for ASP, .NET, Perl,
CGI, PHP, XML och SHTML, as well as CDONT and JMail. The reason for not
offering the server extensions is that "confuses" the users.



I have, through FP, created a relatively simple request form that I would
like potential customers to fill out and send to a specific e-mail address,
either as a formatted document looking something like the form on the site
page, or as plain, formatted text. It doesn't really matter.



How do I do this practically, and what steps are necessary to take and where
do these steps have to be taken? I would also like to have a confirmation
e-mail message sent to the reply-mail address, together with a redirection
to a confirmation message page.



A second, closely connected question, is how e-mail addresses can be
protected from being harvested in this type of application?



I would be most grateful for any guidance on this subject.

Can you build form? If so, you can create a SEND IT! form by just creating hidden fields with specific values (see the
documentation).
