Turn Any Web Form Into Email Notifications

The problem: HTML forms have no destination

An HTML form on its own does nothing. The moment a visitor clicks submit, the browser needs a URL to POST the data to, and that URL needs a running server to catch it, validate it, and do something useful. On a static site, a Jamstack build, or a plain landing page, you do not have one.

Standing up a mail server, wiring SMTP credentials, and writing a handler just to receive a contact message is far more work than the form itself deserves. VASTROX Forms removes that entire layer. You get a hosted endpoint that receives the POST and forwards it to your inbox.

How it works: point your form action at your endpoint

Create a form on VASTROX Forms, copy your unique endpoint ID, and set it as your form's action. Keep method as POST. Every field with a name attribute is captured and included in the email you receive.

That is the whole integration. No JavaScript is required, no API keys are exposed in your markup, and nothing runs on your side.

Copy<form action="https://forms.vastrox.com/YOUR-ID" method="POST">
  <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name" required>
  <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Your email" required>
  <textarea name="message" placeholder="Your message" required></textarea>
  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>

What lands in your inbox

On each submission you receive a clean email containing every named field and its value, so a contact form arrives with the sender's name, email, and message laid out for you. Set the reply-to address to the visitor's email so you can respond to them directly from your mail client.

Because the notifications are delivered as standard email, they work with whatever you already use, whether that is Gmail, Outlook, or a VASTROX-hosted mailbox on your own domain. If you already run your site and email with VASTROX, your forms live alongside them with nothing extra to configure.

Works with any stack

The endpoint accepts a normal form POST, so it fits any framework or no framework at all. Plain HTML, React, Vue, Astro, Hugo, WordPress, or a hand-coded landing page all work the same way: they just need to POST to your URL.

Prefer to submit with JavaScript for a custom success state? Send the same fields as a fetch request and handle the response yourself.

Copyconst res = await fetch("https://forms.vastrox.com/YOUR-ID", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: "Ada",
    email: "ada@example.com",
    message: "Hello from my site"
  })
});

Spam protection built in

A public form endpoint attracts bots. VASTROX Forms includes a honeypot field and submission filtering so automated junk is caught before it reaches your inbox, without forcing a CAPTCHA on real visitors.

Add an optional hidden honeypot input to catch simple bots, and legitimate submissions pass straight through.

Copy<!-- Bots fill this in; humans never see it -->
<input type="text" name="_gotcha" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off">
