Incredibly awesome writing! Really..

Really simple to do and easy, really like the way you lay out exactly what to cut and paste in each file. Does the sender use the default sendmail of the hosting provider, is there any way to configure a custom “email SMTP” to send from?

This a nice tut, but it needs adding to to make it secure and to validate input, I would not use this live atm.
