Well, it *might* be possible, but it won't be easy. It's not as simple as "put <x> into web page field <y>". If you are filling in a form on the webmail page, it is possible that the page you go to might be a CGI - if it is, you might be able to pass parameters to it so that when you go there the field is filled in. (You can tell if it uses a CGI by looking at the resulting URL after you manually go to the browser page - if the location string in the address bar includes something like .cgi or .asp or .php, followed by a "?" and a series of parameters fomatted as "param=value", then it uses a CGI.) If it doesn't use a CGI, you still may be able to put your data into the field by automating the browser from the outside through AppleScript, VB Script, etc., although most browsers are pretty "dumb" where that stuff's concerned.
