Frontpage 2003 SE email transport
I really need some help with getting my frontpage forms to "send to" an
email address its driving me nuts!
>From what ive read here and there getting a form made in FP to send to
an email address is like gold dust. My host is Fasthosts.co.uk and im
on a linux server with my FSE's installed. I can get the form to save
to a file in my private folder but cannot get it to send to my
designated email account, i get a confirmation page but no email. My
host says I can only send to a mail box held on their servers which is
what i've got, they dont seem to know whats going on which is very very
annoying. I think this is the FSE's which are installed:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title> FrontPage Configuration Information </title>
</head>
<body>
<!-- _vti_inf.html version 0.100>
<!--
This file contains important information used by the FrontPage client
(the FrontPage Explorer and FrontPage Editor) to communicate with the
FrontPage server extensions installed on this web server.
The values below are automatically set by FrontPage at installation.
Normally, you do not need to modify these values, but in case
you do, the parameters are as follows:
'FPShtmlScriptUrl', 'FPAuthorScriptUrl', and 'FPAdminScriptUrl'
specify
the relative urls for the scripts that FrontPage uses for remote
authoring. These values should not be changed.
'FPVersion' identifies the version of the FrontPage Server Extensions
installed, and should not be changed.
