Is this what I think it is? A resurrection of those free hosted formmail scripts we used when I started writing web pages in the late 20th century?

Edit: http://www.formmail.com/ still seems to be going, in fact.

The whole static site craze is a rerun of the 90's.

Right? This is the one I switched to after getting fed up with FormMail. It was self-hosted and runs on PHP instead of CGI, whohoo! Pratically magic for 2001. http://regretless.com/scripts/scripts.php#dodosmail

I could be wrong, but it looks like it requires CGI

You either download the CGI script and host it yourself or you pay the formmail.com people to host it. In the olde days there were free ones where you specified the destination in the form, but spam put paid to that.

It's free, unless you exceed 1000 submissions/month:
