Re: Mail form for NT server

Hi Debbie, Sorry for the late response.
There are many server-side techniques. I'm a Linux fan and have used CGI
(Perl and C) and PHP. I still quite wet behind the ears as far as ASP is
concerned (don't want to be dependent on M$ techs). Since, you mentioned
that you're on NT, I suggested ASP. You can find several free emailing ASP
scripts on the net.
Also, you CAN use Formail on NT... might have to tweek around a bit :-)

Hope this helps
