Welcome
to WebFormDesigner's form to email service
Many
users of WebFormDesigner have commented that they have had some difficulty
in setting up a suitable processing script for their forms, or their host
doesn't support such set-ups. So why not use our form to email service!
Cost
There is a one-time $5 registration fee, after which you can process as
many forms as you like for free
How
it works
Firstly,
you will need to sign up for an
account. The information you provide enables us to send your
forms to the correct person (you!) You should also ensure you have read
the Terms & Conditions regarding the
scope of the service.
Once
you have signed up and your account activated, you will be given a unique
Form ID code. This code is embedded in your forms, which in turn enables
us to send the form data to the right person (you!).
That's
pretty much it! Forms created with WebFormDesigner and containing your
ID will automatically use our form-to-email service - there is no need
to install anything else on your website. Forms submitted will be emailed
to you at the address you specified when signing up. You can log into your account at any time to change the details.

Restrictions
Number
of forms
At this time, there is no restriction on the number of forms you can use
on your website, nor the number that may be submitted via the service
in any one period. This may change over time, but for the moment...enjoy!
Security
As the information is sent to you via email, it is not suitable for sensitive
information any more than regular email is. In particular, you should
not use this service for capturing
and transmitting credit card numbers or other such financial information.
Any user found
knowingly doing so will have their account immediately terminated.
In
addition to these summaries, please ensure you have read our Terms
& Conditions
Questions?
How
quick is it?
All incoming forms are processed and emailed to you at the time they are
recieved. However, please bear in mind that email messages do vary in
the time taken to reach their destination, depending on server loads,
geographical locations and other circumstances beyond our control. The
time can vary between almost instantaneous and several hours.
Will
I get bombarded with adverts?
No! Both WebFormDesigner and the form-to-email service is ad-free. The
only time we would contact you would be if there was a problem with your
account, or to advise you of changes or improvements to the service.
Do
you keep copies of the form info?
No, your form is processed immediately on receipt and forwarded to you
via email. We don't keep any of the form data. The only log we maintain
is the time and date that the form was submitted, so we can evaluate usage
of the system.
What
if my email doesn't come through?
Like most mail systems, our server will try several times to send your
email before it gives up.
Will
I get spammed?
It's difficult to see how. Because you are identified only by your ID
number, people looking at your web page form have no direct access to
your email address (unless, of course, you have inserted it elsewhere
on the site) The system is certainly more secure than "mailto:"
links.
Why
do I need a password as well?
Your password is only required to log in to your account. This would be
needed to amend your details or change email addresses, etc. You should
ensure your password is kept safe and not given to anyone else.
How
do I cancel my account?
Just stop using it! Of course, a courtesy email to us advising that you
no longer require it would be appreciated.
