just before i start....
this is not a dig or a flame or anything like that, just a question cos i'm not to sure about it.

If you go to the palmversa.com signup page and view the source, you will see what i think is the html part of the formmail script.

As i understand it, the results are sent by email. If the server is a secure one and the email is sent to the server owner, would that be secure?

any ideas?:confused:

When you choose option check or cc it redirects to:

https://host14.4ua.com/vertexhost/normal.htm

Then is submitted to:

/vertexhost/cgi-bin/formmail.pl

which is still within the secure envioronment.

As for being secure thru the mail, it depends on whether or not he is using some form of encryption within his formmailer or not.
