The application is just something I'm playing with to learn a little bit on
web apps. It uses an HTML form to send an email. The form takes inputs
like the From:, To: and Subject: fields and a text field.
I found the "Internet Protocols and Support" chapter in the Library
Reference that covers also the CGIHTTPServer. It's definitely something I
will have to read. Thanks.
