Mchl Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Do you want a mail server or a webmail client? These are two different things, and neither of them is trivial.

corbin Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 That looks like a mail client. Well actually it looks like a guestbook page, but it looks closer to a mail client than a mail server. Don't take this the wrong way, but if you don't know the difference between a mail client and a mail server, you shouldn't even think about attempting this. Just to clarify, are you trying to make a contact form (simple), or are you trying to make a mail client (hard)?

And frankly I'm not sure if I can say what you actually want. Do you need to create a guestbook using MS Access as a database?

Why do you keep quoting people and not adding anything? Is that your way of bumping? If so, you're not going to get a better answer. Sorry. There isn't a *magic* answer.

Mchl Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Well then. First of all, why MS Access? It's not the best, or second best choice for such purpose. (Actually, it's no good at all) Second. There are several tutorials showing how to create a guestbook. Did you find/read/follow any? Did you start any coding?
