email forms

[yepp]

I have used forms in FP for a long time and have it going to a MS Access. I
now want it to go to an email address. I keep putting the email address in
but it will not send. The website is www.millersmustard.com
The contact us page is set to go to the database and the recipe form is set
to go to (e-mail address removed) . I can't understand why it is not sending it to
me.
My code is front page looks like this:
<form method="POST" name="Recipes" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" startspan S-Builtin-Fields="" U-File="test"
S-Format="HTML/BR" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE"
S-Email-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Email-Address="(e-mail address removed)"
B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Email-Subject-From-Field="FALSE"
S-Email-Subject="Recipe"
--><!--webbot bot="SaveResults" endspan -->
<table border="0" width="62%" bgcolor="#000000" height="375">

Thanks for your help!

You need to use an email address associated with the domain.
Something like: (e-mail address removed)

Then have your email client check this email address on the server.
It is the server that actually sends you the email, not the form.
When you get the email, the "from" address will be a server address.

Also make sure your host has the form to email transport enabled.
It's "usually" automatic if your server has FP extensions installed.

You can not use the FP Form Handler and the database component at the same time, as the FP form
handler requires the form to be named with a .htm(l) extension. To do both, requires your custom
write a ASP based form handler.

I believe the email must be (e-mail address removed), not just any email
address outside the domain or host's domain.

eg your domain is millersmustard.com so the email has to be
(e-mail address removed)
