SEND TO A FRIEND
The "Send to a Friend" feature I used to have is no longer available. My web hosting company will
not allow it. This is from an email they sent me:
EMAIL FROM MY WEB HOST
We do not allow any script form that is configured to "send email to a friend" on our servers.
It is 100 percent exploitable by spammers, as it provides an open relay. Once spammers
find the form they will type in their own personal message that will likely be an advertisement
for the product they are selling.
Once exploited, a script such as this would get the mail server IP address blacklisted and thus not
allowing anyone on the server to be able to send mail through a form or script or through email forwarding.

I have done some checking and there are a couple of options. One option is to use a "send a friend" form from a web site
that is not part of my site. Those are the ones that have all the advertising, and you have to be careful or you
will be subscribed to their newsletters. I don't want to subject my list
members to that.
Another option is to use a "send to a friend" site where I pay for the service
of sending my pages. That is something I might use depending on how
much it will cost. I will keep you posted.
