FlatPress contact page allows your blog site readers to send you an e-mail without you publishing your e-mail address. To use this feature mail() needs to be enabled by your webhost for your website. This component is sometimes referred to as sendmail. The e-mail account used is specified on the admin panel > option page.

Currently, FlatPress does not support SMTP/FSockOpen.

If you are unable use the mail(). You do have another option. They are quite a few providers of free contact pages that you can link to from your blog site. They vary on their features but they all protect your e-mail address from spammers.

For a list of six providers of free contact pages see this external post [[http://flatpress.110mb.com/?x=entry:entry080609-030910|Six Free Contact Page Providers]]

If you have FSockOpen and your really want to use it for your own contact page see this external link [[http://www.110mb.com/forum/howto-a-contact-form-without-sendmail-enabledupdated-t20170.0.html;msg154416#msg154416|HOWTO: A Contact form WITHOUT sendmail enabled]]
