What not cgi? Isn't that the original and minimal
way to accomplish this?
The python3 mail script already works standalone (tests out fine from CLI,
on the server).
I'd rather not Flask out the whole website just to get the ability to run
one .py script for contact mail.
I'd rather not add .php to the server just to do this contact form.
** /cgi-bin to run the single python3 script is deprecated [Correct?].
Supported by existing protocols and running millions of
websites.

It is a straight-up HTML5 form ... that USED to post to .aspx.
<form method="POST" id='contactForm' action=" ? " >
While I would prefer the answer to be python-ish,
it does to Have to be python.
Is there any specific reason you don't just use mod_python, to remove
the overhead of a CGI script?
