Email Body via Form

[Guest]

I would like to use a form that collects the user's email address and then
sends an email where the body reads:

"subscribe auexplore <email address>"

Is this possible?

Thanks!

No when using the FP Form Handler, you will need to write a custom form handler in ASP, ASP.net, PHP
etc.

Yes. Are you running on a Windows server that has ASPMail installed? I can
post a script for you.

Honestly I'm not sure as this is on a university FrontPage server. I know
you can use ASP code, though. I suppose if you post it I can just try and
see.

This takes two forms fields; email and name from the following form:

<form method="POST" action="acaspmail.asp">
<div align="center">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%" valign="middle" align="center" colspan="2">
<h1 align="center">State of Connecticut Web Site Accessibility
Listserv (access-ct)</h1>
<h2 align="center">Subscription Request Form</h2>
<p align="center">Please enter your name and your e-mail address
and
press the Submit Button</p>
<p align="center">&nbsp;</p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="25%" valign="middle" align="right"><label
for="name">Name:&nbsp;&nbsp;</label></td>
<td width="75%" valign="middle" align="left"><input type="text"
id="name" name="name" size="42"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="25%" valign="middle" align="right"><label
for="email">Email:&nbsp;&nbsp;</label></td>
<td width="75%" valign="middle" align="left"><input type="text"
id="email" name="email" size="42"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%" valign="middle" align="center" colspan="2"><input
type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"></td>
</form>


and generates the subscribe email and sends it to the listserv processor. It
then passes off (via the #include at the bottom to a thank you page.


<%
Dim MyBody
Dim MyASPMail
%>

<%
Set MyASPMail = CreateObject("SMTPsvg.Mailer")
MyASPMail.QMessage = TRUE
MyASPMail.FromAddress= Request("email")
MyASPMail.AddRecipient "Your list serv name", "your list serv address"
MyASPMail.RemoteHost="your amtp mail server name goes here"
MyASPMail.Subject="Subscription Request"
MyBody = MyBody & "subscribe access-ct " & Request("name") & vbCrLf
MyASPMail.BodyText= MyBody
MyASPMail.SendMail
set MyASPMail=nothing
%>

<!--#include file="acthanks.htm"-->
