    Post Posting form data wih ASP

    With cgi you would use the sendmail feature of the unix platform, but how do I get information that the user submits to my email using ASP?

    Could probably find it out myself but I thought this forum needs more action

    In the declaration for the form use
    <form method="POST" enctype="text/plain"
    action="mailto:address@domain?subject=whatever">

    On second thoughts - that wasn't what I was looking for at all - I need it to be sent without using MY email adress, but rather being sent throught the server, by the server...

    Just like sendmail does, if you catch my drift...

    I made this program that does exactly what you want it to do. It sends email through ASP using the server. The 'From' address can be anything you like. Your actually using the CDO object. If you would like the program, I have it available on my ftp server. Which is located at ftp://kukwa.com/college/CIS 438/U17hp.asp .

    Oh and btw, if you'd like to see it before you download it go to www.kukwa.com/438/u17hp.asp .

    If you ftp there using an ftp program it doesn't matter, but if you use IE try this ftp://kukwa.com/college/CIS%20438/u17hp.asp. Not sure if that will work.
    As a side note, the space worked on my computer. Probly cause my computer is the server. If you still are having problems, email me at [email protected].
