Question Email Form
Hi everyone,

I am glad to be part of this forum. My question is about setting up email on my website. I need to know how would I proceed in order to create a form so my visitors can register directly for email without me assigning them a password. In order words I need them to be able to register for email just like yahoo or aol etc.

Thanks

You simply want a form that requests their information and then eother saves that in a file or emails it to you or does whatever else you want to do.

These things are trivial if you use Perl CGI.pm

For sending mail to myself or whomever, I like the Mail::Sendmail module because it lets me use simple HTMl.

Example of CGI.pm at 2005/01/25 CGI.pm

Example of Sendmail:

Code:
my %mail =   ( To      => $MailList,
              From    => $LdapUserEmail,
              Subject => $Subject,
              smtp => $taskglobals::smtp,
              'Content-Type' => 'text/html',
              'Content-Transfer-Encoding' => '8BIT',
              Message => $body
            );
sendmail(%mail) or print "ERROR sending mail\n";

I see but I am a novice in the field; can you explain it to me step by step? will I need to install a specific program in my computer?

Thanks
