Using java to post to an .asp form

The company I work for wants to give out free e-mail addresses to their clients. The mail server (Where the address is created) is on another server, and it uses the proprietary .asp EZsignup form to create the e-mail addresses.

I'm currently using java to attempt to post to that form. I don't want the form to actually submit, I just want the form to have certain blanks filled out with the user data.

But everytime they click on "signup now" they'll hit a 501 not implemented page. But if you click on "refresh" the appropriate page on the mail server will open up, but without the data that is wanted in the forms (They are still able to fill out the form and submit it).

Any ideas?

How does this 'EZsignup' recieve your request - I take it via a HTTP POST request. How are you sending this data, via a URLConnection or Socket ? How are you specifying the reqest parameters ?
