Since you're probably serving on IIS4, why don't you use an ASP component
to send the email for you. It would be far more robust than a client-side
solution like the one above. There are a number of such solutions
available, just do a search on the web. If ASP isn't an option, what about
Perl, Cold Fusion, etc.?
Hope this helps!
