Need help!!!

I don't want to mess around with .ASP files (if I don't have to).

I just want to send form data/results to a email distribution list. Is this possible? I know its METHOD="POST" ACTION="MAILTO:blah@blah.com", but when I submit it doesn't post anything to the email.

What am I doing wrong/forgeting?

though this doesn't really belong on this forum, I'll answer you anyway. Suggest the mods move it though.


<html>
<body>
<form action="mailto:youremailaddress@yourdomain.com" method=post ENCTYPE="text/plain">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Customer Name: " VALUE=""> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE='send'>
</FORM>
</body>
</html>

i tried your suggested way to send form data to an email id. when i click on submit button, outlook is opened with filled form data and email id. after sending, mail is sent but and it is shown in "sent items", but in reality,message is not sent when i check inbox. do u have any idea why this is happening.

Thanks,
Amit

If the message is sent but not received then the problem lies within the email address itself, receiving mail server or something beyond the scope of the code above.
