Frequently asked questions
How does a mailto contact form work?
When the visitor presses send, their own email app opens with your address and their answers filled in, and they send it from there. No server is involved, which is why it's free and simple.
What are the limits of a mailto form?
It needs an email app on the visitor's device, some browsers show a warning first, and your address is visible in the page code, so it can attract spam. It suits small sites and quick tests.
What does Join Postly Lead Forms add?
A hosted form that saves every submission to your Leads list, emails you, filters spam and works on any device without an email app. You can also embed it, link it from your bio or use it on Facebook.
