The mailto method will also work in preview as it relies to the visitor's email client (Outlook Express or other) to send the mail.

Yes, since you post your email on the site, it is to be xpected that sooner or later your email address will get captured by spam bots so you will start recieving spam.

You can hide your email address from bots: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/emailriddler/

Re: simple question from simple scott

I too would like to add a means of emailing me.
I have added a glass button called contact us - type mailto and URL is contact@egabc.com will this work? I haven't paid to upload yet as i am trying to prepare everything first, so it is difficult to tell if i have things right.
will i get a lot of spam with this method? should i be doing something different.
Thanks

Hi honden,
Was checking your site. Looks nice! Think you should stop the side scrolling. To do that set aoo your pages properties to 600 x 800 (or 1000 max). This way all your pages will fit in everybody's monitor!

Cheers,
