Outlook Auto-Reply to Email Address from Frontpage Form field?
We have a Frontpage form online that asks the user to fill-in a few fields. When a person submits the form it is emailed to me. When I manually hit reply, the email address from the "email" form field is inserted into the "To" field in the reply email. However, when I tell Outlook to send an auto-reply, it does nothing. No email is sent to the intended recipient. It prints the email and puts it in the specified folder as asked, but nothing is sent.
I had set the form up so that it inserts the email address entered in the form into the reply field . . . but the Outlook auto-reply doesn't sense it or something! Help!

Did you setup your account as IMAP or POP3?

Well, it actually has been posted in the Outlook section for several days with no response at all. I think it may be more of a Frontpage issue, though, and here's why:
Frontpage allows me to designate one of the form fields to be the reply-to field through its menus. However, when the form is emailed to me, the from field says www@xx.com. I would like it to use the email address the person put into the Email form field. Is that possible? When I click reply in Outlook it does have the user's email in the To field. But if I use auto-reply in Outlook, it uses the From field (www@xx.com). Can I specify the From field in the Frontpage form?

The email account is a POP account.
OK,
When you setup the rules wizard, you might have selected to reply to persons on your Address book only. In this case if the person sending the email is not in your address book, the auto reply will not work.
Try setting it up again
Do not select Persons on your address book
Select Sent to Me Only
Avoid anything that points to stored items

This is what is in the Rules Wizard:
Apply this rule after the message arrives
with Changes Form in the subject
print it
and reply using C:\Response
and move it to the Changes folder
--------------------------
For some reason it seems the form is generating a From address to put in the field. If it could be set to the user's email, I think it would work. When using the auto-reply currently, it's sending a response to the www@xx.com email address, which then comes back as undeliverable.

Well . . . if in the Frontpage form I don't specify a reply-to form field, Outlook will automatically reply to www@xx.com. But if I specify a reply-to form field (so it can access the user's address), it won't send anything at all. It will reply to the fake address Frontpage has generated (www@xx.com), but it won't reply to the real one.
So the auto-reply seems to try to send a reply, but it won't send it to the right address, which is the reply-to field I specified in the Frontpage form.

Hi,
Usually when the user sends you an email using an online form, the email address that you receive will not be the email address of the user it will be the email address that is assigned in the Server SMTP.
You can not pickup the sender's email address, this is why it is not sending anywhere.

hh
What are the form fields?
The problem is that Outlook does not pickup the Reply To Address automatically. It replies to the sender which is the server SMTP.
If we find a way to make Outlook reply automatically to the address in the Reply to field, it will work.
When I send a form via email I receive it in the Inbox, when I press reply it picks-up the Reply to address and it works fine. But I can't find an option in the Rules Wizard.

Is there a way we can change the sender address for the form?

Or make Outlook auto-reply to the Reply-to address?
You are right,
Isn't it strange. When you receive the message from the online form and click reply it picks-up the reply to, but it looks like Outlook Rules Wizard does noth ave this option.
Does your host support ASP?

Exactly. I can't understand why it doesn't use that same reply-to address for the Rules Wizard.
And yes, my host supports ASP.

Why don't you use CDONTS, it is a full email system, It can receive and atumatically send a reply to the user with no problem and it does not need your Outlook at all.
Are you interested?

ASKER
I would be willing to give it a try. My preference would probably be toward some sort of macro that would make Outlook use the reply-to field, print it and put it in another folder. But we could try CDONTS.
Check if your host supports CDONTS:
Create a new page in your web
add the following code between <Body><body>
Change the email addresses in "From" and "To"
Save it as SendMail.asp
Run the page
If you get no error
Check your email
----------------- Copy what is below this and paste it in NotePad --------------------------
<%
Dim myMail
Set myMail = CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMa
myMail.BodyFormat = 0
myMail.MailFormat = 0
myMail.From = "TheSender@Email.com"
myMail.To = "The Receiver@Email.com"
myMail.Subject = "Test"
myMail.Body = "Test"
myMail.Send
Set myMail = Nothing
Response.Write("OK")
%>
--------------------------
Copy from NotePad to your HTML Page.
If this works, Outlook will be able to pick-up the address from and reply to it automatically.

If it works you can receive a clear "From" to Outlook where you can utilize the Rules Wizard with no problem now.

It's picking up the From currently, isn't it? It's the Reply-to from the frontpage form field that it's missing, right?
ASKER
Or you're trying to get the Reply-To from Frontpage to be the From field, I'm guessing.
Hi APConnextion,
Exactly,
I know that it is picking-up the From but the From here is the server email address. It is not picking up the Reply To automatically. If you click on the message and click reply manually, it picks-up the reply to address.

Hi,
I've done some thinking:
You have the following options:
One
----
Remove the rules and reply to the messages manually by selecting the message and hit reply. Anyway, the automated message will be a template saying the same thing to everyone. Since you will be receiveing the messages from the server, you better reply manually.
Also, the auto reply will reply to any message you receive, not only the online one.
Two
---
You can change the action of your form to open the default mail client on the senders computer, in this way you will receive his/her email instead of the server's email. This way the Auto Reply will work fine.
Example: When I fill the form and press submit, my email client will open and send the results of the form to your email from my email. This way you will have my email as "From" to which auto reply will answer successfully.
Here is a sample code of the form:
--------------------------
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Langua
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>Subject</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="POST" action=mailto:YourEmailAdd
<p>Subject: <input type="text" name="Subject" size="20"></p>
<p>To: <input type="text" name="To" size="20"></p>
<p><textarea rows="20" name="BodyMessage" cols="50"></textarea></p>
<p> </p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
I've go no other solution. I couldn't find any macro to open the message in a reply mode.
Also CDONTS does not work on your server.
The only possible solution to your problem is to find someone who can write VBA code for Outlook as an add-in that will pick-up every new message, then open reply with the senders email in the "To" field and send the message.

What about changeing the originating address on the web server? Choose configure fp server extensions in iis by right clicking on that website. If it is hosted, you can ask the isp to do it for you.
CDONTS "probly dont work" because the smtp server info is configured wrong as well
Hi dtolo,
Do you mean that the host can send the email using the senders email instead of the Server's email?
It will solve the problem if the host can do it.
Thank you dtolo for the input.

I recommend manual reply and keep the form as it is, keep the reply to address.
Approximately how many messages you will get daily?
Or check with your host and ask them what is the mail system that they support. They must support something. Then let me know.

Sorry about the huge delay. Was gone for awhile. Anyway . . .
The number of email messages per day depends on the time of the month, and it will go up exponentially as we grow. Can be anywhere from 0 during the slow time of the month to 50 during the busy times. And we will be three times as big by next year at this time, which will leave a lot of busywork for someone to do with all those replies. I'd like to eliminate that if at all possible.
As far as I know, the server has CleanMail and Mailman? Does that help any?
Thanking you for all your help and patience,

By the way, I really appreciate your help.

Never mind all that (except that I appreciate your help)! What you asked me to try works now. The Next was attached to the previous line. (I should've seen that . . . ) *sigh* But, onto the next step?
You are welcome APConnextion, it is only that did not use Mailman before.
What is the situation now, is it sending with no problem?
Thanks

So far, so good! I sent the email to myself. Then I changed the code so it used the email address entered into the form as the "From" email in Outlook. Now I just need to alter my form to work with it. Not sure how to do the validation though. I'll have to check on that. :-)
Form validation to make sure that the user entered a correct email address?
ASKER
Yep. Both the email address and a couple of the other fields. It doesn't have to be verified (that it exists), just that they did enter one.

I am not sure what is the reason. I think this post should be moved to Outlook section. It is not a Frontpage problem.
