I have just uploaded a web page for my wife using MS-front page.The Link I have on my W.Page when a sent a test message is not going anywhere.

Also when I do the same[test message] from my desk top, it goes to my MS outlook and stays on out box and goes no where.

When I called my Web provider they are saying , it has some thing to do with the MS Front page and they cannot help me resolve this problem for me.

I would like to know whet I am doing wrong.?

I am using 1& 1 web hosting company to upload my site

Thank you in advance
 
To set up a link, click on insert/hyperlink, click on the envelope and type in an email adddress.

In the HTML, you should see something like
Code:
<a href="mailto:cup@spam.com">Mail me</a>

Does the mailto part have your email address?

When you click on it, it will bring up your mail tool (outlook or thunderbird or something similar).
 
If you are trying to send email to
pushparany(AT)verizon.net with the subject REGISTER, it is working fine.

All email links do is fill in the stuff like who it is to and what the subject is. If the address is correct but the email isn't sending, the problem is with the email program, not the web page.

In Outlook Express, it is Tools/Options/Send

Check the box that says "Send messages immediately
