Hey all,
Does anyone know of the best economical way to set up automated email? I’m working on my first site with FP 2000 along with Outlook and I would like to set up automated responses to mail received from people who email me from one of the email addresses on my site. Hopefully with the feature to change the color of text on the subject and from fields on the emails I automatically send out on replies?

Thank good buddies!!!!!!

An automated email response util isn't usable in FP, is it? To my knowledge, it's a server-side app that handles that. Same sorta thing as sendmail.
Also, you wouldn't be able to change the color of the 'text on the subject and from fields on the emails', but you could change the colors of the body of the email itself, if you are sending an HTML-based email. That you could do in FP, and just copy the source code to the automated response applet in place of the letter you would like to be automated.

then again, i've never tinkered w/ an automated email response program so i don't know it's limitations, or even what to use for creating the response.

Hope *some* of this helps. :)
