HTML Email for Office 365 (Outlook)

Hi All,

Very new to this and need some help please.

I am looking to send out an email to many clients with "Updated Terms of Contract", which will ideally have a submit button at the bottom of the page.

This button would send a response atomically to a pre-defined email address with a canned response "I accept the Updated Terms" along with the date and users email address.

Can anyone help with a template sample for a simple HTML email with a submit button?

Thanks

    If this is a Dreamweaver and Web related question, then I would send the emails from my website and include an encrypted user ID in the email. When one of the buttons (OK/NOT OK) is pressed, this will take them to a defined-by-ID web page on my site. This page will contain the script of what to do next.

    If this is an Outlook question, you are at the wrong address. Google the subject and maybe you can find and answer. Please keep in mind that Outlook represents less than 7% of all email clients.(February 2016 Email Client Market Share​)

    Email does not support form submissions. 

    You'll have to create the form on your website for them to  go to. 

    And then add a link to the email message.

    If you don't know how to create scripted forms or are unsure what your web hosting plan supports, you could use an online form service like Wufoo.com

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Yes, that would be the ideal way to handle this as this appears to be an OPT-IN/OPT-OUT sort of thing.
