GoDaddy's support for email through FrontPage forms is patchy. Make sure
they have set up the email transport in the extensions. Also, verify they
allow the use of the file upload component - many hosts disable this
feature, as well as disabling the ability to change permissions on folders.
The folder permissions must be set on the (live) site you are uploading
to - not your PC. With the live site open in FrontPage, right click on the
folder, choose Properties.
Clear the box "Allow scripts to be run"
Then the Allow uploads and Overwrite file names boxes should become
available, if the Host allows it.
Using FTP may have corrupted the extensions on your site. The extensions
may need to be reinstalled.
