Give them a url in your email - put the form up on the www - that's the best
way.

So your pretty new email form works for just some people. Nice. The fact
that it does not work for a large percentage of your recipients does not
bother you?

Hmmm. Oxymoron here.

There are no kludges. The email client either supports the form (OE and
Outlook) or it does not (all the others).

This is not your personal 24/7 help desk. If you do not like the answers
then you can ignore them.

Shouting at us to shut up has just dropped your creditibility to zero.

I want to be able to stick a butter knife in an outlet to charge my
flashlight battery. Just because it doesn't work doesn't mean that it
can't be used. My question is not whether you all think this is a
good idea, but whether anyone knew any reasonable kludges to connect
the outlet to the battery with my knife.

If you don't know. SHUT UP!

You don't think that's a good enough reason? You came here and asked about
opinions, and now you brand us as crazy? LOL

I always thought that including "features" that can only be used by a
small minority of people was a great idea, too. I mean, what's the
point have having stuff that 100% of your customers can use?
