FormMail, delimited output needed

Hello all,
I need some advice:

I need to add a membership form to my website, and would like the output of this to be emailed to me in a delimited format, so I can easily add it to the members database.

My host provides "FormMail" and although this seems to be fine for emailing the output to me, it doesn't provide the option of a delimited outputfile.

So, i found "BFormMail" and asked my provider to add the "delimited file output option", but they say they can't do it.

What other options are there for getting a delimited outputfile from FormMail, or how could I automatically (or easily manually) produce a delimited file from a html or txt file?

Alternatively, does anyone know any hi-tech arguments I could use to persuade my host to add the delimited output option to FormMail?

Many thanks in advance,
Susanne

Not sure exactly what you want delimited, exactly. But it sounds like a job for server scripting. You may have better luck querying the Server-Side Scripting Forum.

Cordially, David
