 guess You missed to look in the "Products/Formulator" directory on the

would not be there, the script would not be able to do things like
"from Products.Formulator.Errors import ..."

Render a page template which displays a message to the submitter that
the email has been send. Though it may sound strange, some people like
to get feedback if they press a submit button on the web ;-)
