confirmation of webform being recieved by the reciepent

Sorry, I don't understand what you want to achieve? Could you please give more details? Which filter do you want/need to by-pass? What is a congressional officers' web form? Why don't you just send the web form data via email?

Cheers

Peter

Hey Peter

Majority of the congressional candidates do not accept emails due to SPAM. Whenever you want to log an issue or want to ask for support from the corgressman you need to send a Webform Lemme give you an example .We found out that most of congressional offices do not accept emails for anti-spam purpose. Requests must be sent through web form on each congressional officer’s website. This issue is addressed in capwiz's demo at: http://capitoladvantage.com/capwiz/qt/Ca....

how can we do this?

Looking forth for an quick reply

Thanks

Sorry, can't open your site. It gives me this error:
We're Sorry

It appears that the page you are requesting either no longer exists or has been moved.

If you pasted or followed the link from an e-mail message, please check that the web address is complete.

If problems persist and you are unable to find what you are looking for, please contact us.

Anyway, your problem is an interesting challenge. So if I get this right, someone fills out a web form to a congressman and this information has to get to this congressman. But you can't use email.

I am not sure about your environment, i.e. is this on Windows? are you using .Net for development. etc.

But the ideas I have in my head about a solution would be in the area of for example, windows Workflow foundation where you could implement a workflow, which then saves ths information to a database. You would need a client app, which woul dpick up teh notification and connect to the database where the information is saved etc.

Another thought is using Message queues. Again, you would need a client which listens to these queues and picks up the message for processing etc.

Sorry OI am just throwing ideas around. But does this go into the right direction?

This is what i would like to do for my application.

Thanks

OK, after looking trough the tour I think what they do is, they have for example a fax server which then sends faxes to the congress people, or they do mailings etc. But I do not see that they choose a delivery transport which can replace email but is still a push media i.e. it gets delivered to the recipient. Their service is to deliver messages to congress people in the best possible way. And I guess they will charge you for this!

If you look at the big picture and you look for a way to deliver web form data to a recipient and the recipient gets it delivered without having to pull the information and you don't want them to install additional client software then you look at emailing! There is no way around it! All other ways require actions on the client side i.e. go to a web page, subscribe to RSS feeds etc. And quite honestly, just imagine someone finds a way to push information to your PC without using eMail and by-passing spam filters, where would this lead us?

Sorry if this isn't much helpful.

Cheers
