Does anyone know if it is possible to send cgi parameters from an email 
message to a cgi script?

I have created an HTML email (only to be used internally with mail clients 
that are known to support it)  that is basically an html form.  The action 
of this form gives the fully-qualified URL of a cgi script.  When 
submitting the form from the email, the script loads its output properly, 
but the update it was supposed to do (update of underlying db table)  never 
happens.  However, if I send the exact same form to the browser, the script 
updates the database properly.  Does any one have any experience with this 
kind of thing?  Is it evne possible to do?

Thanks
