Yossi:
The third varaible and on read null from the file. Here is my config line
followed  by the request log:
FORM_STRING =email=%s&firstname=%s&lastname=%s&address=%s

POST /api/users/create?authkey=0v9iq9tm8l4eug1k1cktnsk0u5& HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic dGVzdGVyOmFwcHNkcmVhbQ==
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)
Accept: */*
Content-Length: 69
Content-Type: ap...

email=sh...@gm...&firstname=test&lastname=(null)&address=(null)

180 0 0 1 !! OK 200
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

external file looks like this:
# Separator used here is ','
sh...@gm...,test,last,address
