Hi All,

This is in reference to the form mailer code from this site - http://www.kirupa.com/web/form_mailer.htm

I was wondering how secure this kind of transfer is. For instance, would it be safe to transfer a social security number on it to an email?

And if not, any suggestions?

Thanks!!

no

anything like that you should be putting behind an https:// server if you're worried about security. has nothing to do w/ the script itself unless you encrypt the ss#, and then decrypt it in the email...
