Hi,

I used to recommend using FrontPage forms but now I see they are NOT
secure at all as far hiding your e-mail address. The e-mail is right
there in the code for spammers to pluck.

I have started making fields required to stop automated hackers from
hijacking the forms, but your e-mail address is still not hidden from
view.

So does anyone know a way to stop the e-mail address from appearing in
the page code? Or is there a good alternative to FP forms?
 
The best approach is to use server-side scripting (ASP, ASP.net, PHP, etc.) to process the form
data.

If you have a unix server you might want to use this PHP form.
