Email Cgi

Try email.cgi version 5.0, an AppleScript CGI extracting the contents of HTML forms and sending the results to one or more email addresses: http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/staff/morgan/email-cgi.html Email.cgi supports carbon copied and well as blind carbon copied messages. It allows for required fields giving Webmasters to ability to mandate data-entry for specific inputs before processing will be completed. Email.cgi has two types of output: output to an email address and output in the form of HTML documents. Both types are highly customizable. No configuration is necessary to the program itself; all customizations are done through the creation of HTML forms. Email.cgi captures and optionally returns the bits of information sent by Web browsers (environment variables) describing their operating environment. The source code for email.cgi is freely available so you can make changes as you see fit. Using email.cgi writers of HTML documents can create things such as but not limited to: surveys, order forms, requests for more information, front-ends to mailing list commands, comment forms, purchase requests, votes and polls, etc. Combined with your desktop email program's filtering functions you will be able to use email.cgi to automatically update databases, process mailing list requests, or return automated email replies to specific questions. Email.cgi should be completely backwards compatible with older versions of the program. The forms you created using the older versions of email.cgi should work just fine with this newer version. The only difference you will see is the format of the program's output files. If you know how or want to learn how to write HTML forms, and you can meet the simple hardware and software of the application, then you can use email.cgi.
