Sending Email from Within a Web Page

It is very easy to send email from within a web page. The two most common uses of this capability are to send the results of a customized form in an email message or to create hidden messages that are sent to you when somebody visits one of your pages. To embed email commands, you must first be at least vaguely familiar with Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASPs). You may want to read this short ASP overview before continuing.

The code should be in an ASP page (e.g. sendmail.asp), and should be called from a forms page (e.g. mailform.html) such as the following:

e.g. mailform.html:

  <FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="sendmail.asp">
	 
	  Your email address: <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="EmailField"><BR>
	  Information 2:      <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="info2"><BR>
	  Information 3:      <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="info3"><BR>
	  Type your message:  <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="messageBody"><BR>
	  <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT>
  </FORM>

e.g. sendmail.asp:

   
  <%
     for each key in request.form  
       eBody = eBody & key &": " &request.form(key) &chr(10)
     next

     SET JMail           = Server.CreateObject("JMail.smtpmail")
     JMail.ServerAddress = "formmail.strongsecure.com"
     JMail.Sender        = request.form("EmailField")  
     JMail.Subject       = "Hello!"
     JMail.AddRecipient    "user@yourdomain.com"
     JMail.Body          = eBody
     JMail.Execute
     SET JMail           = Nothing
  
  %>
  Your message has been sent.

Very Important:
Note that there is no equal sign "=" after the AddRecipient command.

Options:
You can optionally add the following line to send HTML-encoded mail:

JMail.ContentType="text/html"
