title: How to send an email from a webpage/webform?
body: <p>What techniques are available for sending an email via a webpage or a form on a webpage? </p>
  
  <p>I've got some background idea that you POST the form data to a script but I've don't really know what a cgi script is (I'd love to learn if this is the suggested method!) or what the current practice is.</p>
  
  <p>This is just to provide some way for users to contact the operators. The in-page form seems like it would be easier on the user than ask them to open their mail client. I was also concerned about bots harvesting the contact email address (in the case of mailto: links).</p>
