What do people use for this?

It must

a) work - this rules out www.dtheatre.com/scripts/formmail.php, the first google hit for 'PHP formmail'.

b) be secure - I'd prefer to set the destination for email in the script, not the form, for example.

c) not have too much crap attached - a 150k script for this is silly.

d) not insist on people giving an email address when they submit the form - I've hacked http://cgi-central.net/scripts/aformmail/ so it doesn't, but if people have one where I don't need to do so, then...

e) not be in a .zip file that neither pkunzip or winzip can extract from!

what do you actually *need*, ie is this just for feedback to you? is it to enable the website user to send an email to (anyone)?, etc.

On my sites I use a micture of cgi equivalents or the standard PHP 'mail' instruction (bool mail ( string to, string subject, string message [, string additional_headers [, string additional_parameters]] )) dependent on the actual need.
