right then where do i begin , basically i want to create a email similar to a "parts request form" type of thing that i can send to somebody , they can then fill it in then email it back to me . similar to the "contact us" forms you get on websites but done just through email as i don't have any webspace , i have figured out how to get the return email to be addressed to me but cant get the form part to stay in the email and be editable (IE fill in the fields)

if that makes any sense to anyone have you any ideas ??

 

can't be done realistically without having a form based on a website... if your doing it through email you would be required to send the person the form which they would then return to you thus doubling the communication.

My email server would also block this as I do not allow HTML based emails for viral reasons, some email clients would display a pure text email and the HTML form would be an attachment.

Modifying the code in your own form before emailing it back could be a fun way to exploit your system as well.

this is without considering how spam filters handle this form

I would personally consider running a small server from your own net connection for this purpose
