Need a good free auto-responder

Hi all
first of all thanks to anyone who will take the time to answer my query. You would have saved me so much time and effort!
Here's the scenario:
I have a google sites website. I want to embed a simple 'subscription sign me up now' 'form' on it.
I want their info to collate in a spreadsheet but then I also want them to receive an 'auto response' that includes 5 PDF's attached (these are free ebooks)
I can do a form from google docs and embed that although it doesn't look great with 'powered by google docs' etc right underneath it :mad:
I did see this website called freeautobot (dot) com but was wary and don't know if I can somehow work in the PDF's getting automatically emailed back to them.
Can anyone offer me any help?
thanks!

Im not really sure what you are trying to do: please confirm this is your senario:
You have a google Docs form, which your users fill in. (this is stored in a goggle docs spreadsheet)
When your visitors press the submit button, you want to store the info to the docs spreadsheet and then send a confirmation email and 5 pdf's to the address they subscribed with.
If this is what you want its not possible with the current solution you have.
You will either need some custome (php code - do your google sites support this ) or you can try some of the php script sites to find something for free.0 -
well it's what I wanted to do yes. I have not gone live with this yet so there are no sign ups so far.0

I'm thinking maybe it is easier to send a simple auto respond email with a link to another free google site with the pds's listed on there to download for themselves. :rolleyes:0
