Form e-mail problems

[Larry Rager]

I have been trying to get a form up and running using FrontPage 2002 and
have not had any luck. When I add the e-mail address for the info to be sent
I keep getting the following message:

This form is being created on a Disk-Based Web or the FrontPage Server
Extensions have not been configured to send e-mail. Please direct your
system administrator or Internet Service Provider to the instructions in
"Setting up e-mail options on Windows" or "Setting up e-mail options on
UNIX" in the Server Extensions Resource Kit, you can find it at
http://microsoft.com/frontpage/wpp/serk.

I am using Win XP Home and the extensions have been installed (several
times) on the server. Also the link to get the resource kit is not working
cause I keep getting an error page not found. When I go the long way and
try and download I get another error that I need to install IIS 4.0 or
higher which I can not find.

Where do I go from here?

The forms to email transport must be configured in the FP server extensions
on the host server. Then, when you http publish to your host server,
everything should work fine:
