I am making a website for a friend's band, and we are trying to set up a mailing list. I used this code:

<form method="post" enctype="text/plain" action='mailto:fpzweb@hotmail.com'>
<input type="hidden" name="To" value="mailing list">
join the mailing list!<br>
<input type="text" name="address:" size="9" maxlength="50"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>


But everytime someone clicks "Submit" a message pops up saying:

"This form is being submitted using e-mail. Submitting this form will reveal your e-mail address to the recipient, and will send the
form data without encrypting it for privacy. You may continue or cancel this submission."

Then if you continue you have to fill out a profile and all this mumbo jumbo.

So basically I'm asking, how do I avoid this?! Please help!

Thank You!

You'll need to use either a remotely hosted one (sign up at bravenet.com) or if your host supports certain languages (php, cgi, asp) you can use one of them, in which case just search google for "language email form script"
