Script appears to be running ok directly at http://irishmusicnetwork.net/cgi-sys/FormMail-clone.cgi

What is the error message?

Your variables look fine, have you added the domain 'eircom.net' into the recipients array?

Look for the line -

@recipients = &fill_recipients(@referers);

and make it look like......

@recipients = &fill_recipients(@referers,'eircom.net');

Also make sure that the referers array has the ip address of the webserver that the script resides on.

e.g.
@referers = ('xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx');

But as steve says, the error generated should be of more help in narrowing it down.

Hi,

You might want to try this form to mail script that I wrote. It just requires you to change the form variables. The script has to sit on a windows server but if you don't have one, I have it sitting on one of our domains. If you want to post to the script on one of our domains, just PM me for the link.

The latest FormMail script (and clone of it I assume) has some nice features with regard to security.

You can specify the ip of machines allowed to send mail through it, and limit the domains to which mail can be sent to.

If it did not, like your own one, it opens it up to abuse. If I found the link to your script on your server then I could write a script to spam whoever I wanted and it would all come from your own mail webserver.

Bad idea, it eats your bandwidth and will make your ISP mad (let alone the people who recieve the spam mail and track it back to your webserver)

Id highly recomend adding these features for version 1.2 of your script.
