Can I send form results to an email address?
Hello,
I'm using Sitefinity 4.0 forms throughout the site I'm working on. I understand that I can access all the collected data in Sitefinity, but is there a way to send the data to an email address every time the form is submitted?
Thanks,
Jeffrey Paul
Hey Jeffery,
Unfortunately there's no built in way to do this with the current version of SF 4. You need to code this functionality in on your own, see this thread: http://www.sitefinity.com/devnet/forums/sitefinity-4-x/general-discussions/forms-module-notification.aspx
Cheers,

@Phil, what do you make of the SP1 release notes of
"Exposed the following events: FieldValidation, BeforeFormSave, BeforeFormAction, FormSaved"
Tried playing with them yet? One would assume one of those events should contain the submission details\id?
@Steve, I hadn't actually investigated. I use a custom user control to capture and email form data. Creating a control from scratch was easier than trying to work with the new form builder and trying to add my styles, custom validation and email submission.
