    Why leave mailto forms behind
    

    action="mailto:you@example.com" looks simple and needs no server. In practice it depends on a local mail client, leaks the address to bots, and often does nothing for users on the web. For static marketing sites, a form API POST is the modern default.
    

    This migrator finds a form in your paste, rewrites the action away from mailto, forces method="POST", and injects a hidden api_key placeholder when missing. It lists every change so you can review before shipping.

    FAQ
    Quick answers about this free browser tool and how it relates to FormsReach.
    Why is mailto a problem?+
    Mailto opens the visitor email client, exposes your address to scrapers, and fails on many mobile browsers. It is not a reliable lead form.
    Does migration send data to FormsReach?+
    No. The rewrite runs in your browser. You only use FormsReach after you paste the result and deploy with your key.
    What if my form is not mailto?+
    The tool still normalizes method to POST and can inject an api_key field, with notes that no mailto was found.
