RE: [qmailtoaster] Using QMT to pass form contents

2007-09-01 Thread Bob Aloo
I would suggest taking a look at reCaptcha for the image verification.

In addition, there is a drop-in replacement for Matt's formmail listed on his 
web page.  It's endorsed by Matt.  It's called nms, and is supposedly more 
secure.

There are two ways to do this:
1.  Cheesmo:  form method=post action=mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

2.  Better: Have the form processor on the back-end e-mail the script. 
Matt's scripts do this.  (Google Matts archive formmail)

3.  Even better: Do #2, but have a box that the user has to fill in to 
prove a human is on the other side instead of a spam engine.

Beware, putting a form on your site WILL increase your spam.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Using QMT to pass form contents

2007-08-31 Thread George Toft
I have seen this solution in place at large companies, but have not seen 
a script.


What comes to mind is:
- have letters/number (one character) in image format stored on the server
- concatenate them together in a fashion that makes sense to you, but is 
not obviously predictable

- Store the sequence that was issued
- When the form comes back, make sure it contains a sequence that was stored
- expire the store after an hour

I don't remember the name of the technology - something like AYAH (Are 
You A Human?).
