Hi

Is it possible to submit a form via email but use any mail application rather than just using outlook express?

Hi Neil,
Well it's not a very graceful way of doing it, but could be worth trying this, although you've prob got to the same situation as me:

a) Insert just a standard BUTTON
b) Control Type : SUBMIT
c) Now in the SUBMIT tab add in the Submit to URL (in the case of Comcast email)

https://login.comcast.net/login?s=portal&continue=http://redir.comcast.net/redirect/webmailNow this will bring to to email 'sign-in' page.

You could do the similar for YAHOO, but this time the http address would be:

https://login.yahoo.com/config/mail?.intl=us&rl=1But the same rules would apply, ie it'll just bring you to the 'sign in' boxes.

Not sure how you'd enable the form to be "automatically" attached, but it looks as though you'll have to use a 'plain' button rather than the 'email' one.
I'd be interested if any of the folks here can point us in the best direction on this one.
