I'd like to design a feedback  form on my ASP/HTML pages that when 

SUBMITted will send an e-mail message to my Lotus Notes e-mail account.

Does anyone know how to set this up? 

When I use a straight HTML tag (see below) Outlook Express pops up as the 

e-mail client.  We cannot send mail this way. 

<a href="mailto:kathleen.m.whalen@c...">Test E-Mail</a>



Any ideas on where I need to start this adventure?

Kathleen,

This will work...I put some javascript in as a bonus....



Ron.



<script language="JavaScript">

<!-- 

function CheckForm() {

  var fname = document.formmail.name.value;

  var femail = document.formmail.email.value;

  if (document.formmail.name.value == "")

   {

    alert("Please enter a value for the \"Name\" field.");

    document.formmail.name.focus();

    return (false);

   }

  if (document.formmail.email.value == "")

   {

    alert("Please enter a value for the \"Email\" field.");

    document.formmail.email.focus();

    return (false);

   }

  if (document.formmail.email.value.indexOf("@")==-1)

   {

    alert(femail+" invalid..There is no @ in the field.");

    document.formmail.email.focus();

    return (false);

   }

  alert(fname+" ..Thank you for completing the form.  Your Information will

be sent when you close this window and you will go back one screen.");

  window.history.go(-1);

}

</script>

Forgot to tell you...take the <a href out. That is what is causing your html

to pop up email.  As the example I gave you shows, put the action in the

form itself.
