MailStart Form Control Program  
Thank you for choosing MailStart for your site's email needs. There are two different email forms available. One form provides email checking, and the other provides email sending. You may use both forms, but we do request that you place an acknowledgement button somewhere near the forms you use. All form users are bound by the Terms and Conditions of the program, and deployment of the Forms indicates your willingness to accept these terms. The generic HTML for the forms and button can be found below as well as links to some deployment examples.

Ways to use the Send Mail Form

Example 1 - Fixed Subject and Recipient Feedback Page. 
Example 2 - Multiple Subject and Recipient Feedback Page.

Modification rule of thumb

If you remove a field be sure to replace it with a hidden equivalent.  If you want to remove the 'carbon copy to myself' check box, just remove it without adding a hidden field equivalent.
