Hi,

I'm very new to this, and not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I'll give it a shot:

I'm setting up a very simple, non commercial website with bluehost, and have a "contact us" page, so that if someone clicks on the link they can email me. What the link currently does is opens up the users' local default email client on their home PC. (For example, on my PC it opens up Thunderbird.)

I received a letter asking if the page could be configured to open up a non-local, web-based email client instead. Can one do this in Bluehost? I noticed that Bluehost has, in the CP, several web mail services available (Squirrel Mail etc.) Will one of these work for this?

Is there a tutorial on how to do this someone could point me to? Or is it not possible? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

There is a group of pages on how to configure BlueMail (BlueHost's built in form2mail script) in the helpdesk at http://helpdesk.bluehost.com/kb/index.php?mod_id=2&kb_keywords=bluemail

There is a list of pages that deal with problems related to BlueMail there but not how to set it up. I just ran through the "setup" and the script includes www.mydomain.com/bluemail but there is no such directory in my account. Does it need to be installed or?? I'm confused.

EDIT: my bad. I changed the domain name to my own. It should remain bluehost.com/bluemail.
