so you suggest to use a single form, and differentiate the data, based on
the submit?

<form action="emailgestor.php">
<table>
<tr>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="email_1"> favorite</td><td>Re:
forms</td><td><input type="submit" name="reply_1" value="Reply"><input
type="submit" name="delete_1" name="Delete"></td>
</tr>

.
.
.
.
<tr>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="email_30"> favorite</td><td>Re: looks mom,
no hands</td><td><input type="submit" name="reply_30"
value="Reply"></td><td><input type="submit" name="delete_30"
name="Delete"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>


On the server:


for($t=1;$t<=$maxemails;$t++){
   if (isset ( $_POST["reply_" . $t] ) ) {
           replyEmail($t);
   } else  if (isset( $_POST["delete_". $t] )  ) {
          deleteEmail($t);
  }
  if (isset( $_POST["delete_". $t] )  &&  $_POST["delete_". $t]  == "on" ) {
          favoriteEmail($t, true);
  }  else {
         favoriteEmail($t,false);
  }
}

humm... maybe this work.
