I have updated the "contact us" web page.

It no longer has a "service"/"Interested In:" field and the
"other"/"Details" field has been renamed to be "Message".

I changed my mind.  The "service" field has been restored under the
name of "Subject".


Thanks.  It might be helpful to mark the fields that are mandatory.


Ok, I put a star by the required fields.  I have also made it so that
your input isn't lost if you hit submit and the message doesn't get
sent.


It'd be worth putting an MX check on the entered e-mail too.


There's a balance here.  So far the spam isn't to bad and many of the people
who end up there looking for help are there because they have badly
configured e-mail systems.  I'd suggest not adding more checks unless the
spam gets out of control.

Good point and I agree, but we could put an MX check in there and flag the problem to the user and include it in the request to RT.

Slainte,
