Sending Form Submissions to Your Email Account

In this tutorial you will learn how to set up a fill-out form that passes submissions to your email account. You will employ a pre-written CGI program called form2mail.cgi that you can use later to do the same thing with other fill-out forms.

This tutorial has been designed for hands-on learning. You should log in to your account before you begin. In fact, that is where the tutorial begins: it assumes you just logged in to your account, where, on some previous occasion, you already created a home page.

It will take 15 minutes to an hour to complete this tutorial, depending on your experience with web development.

1. Copy tutorial files to your account.
2. Develop a basic HTML form.
3. Define the order of the email.
4. Change the form's action.
5. Configure the email recipient.
6. Create a response page.
