I have a pearl script which I'd like to use on a Windoze NT4 server running IIS. Is there a sendmail app I can use? Or is there a way to and an email using info from a form?

TIA.

You could use IndigoMail:

You could use blat:

Sendmail is UNIX-only.

There's a built in SMTP server with IIS. You just drop a message in the drop box and it sends it automatically. Read up on MSDN for details, I did it a long time ago and it was pretty simple.

Or you may be able to use CDONTS if you know how to do COM in PHP. Or you could buy ASPEmail or something..

Raman,
I think he said he had a perl script... no offense.

I just realize he also asked for a form style... my bad.
