to my cgi bin on uk servers.net

On windows you will need to use the SMTP: variant of the $mailprog
configuration - you will need to ask your hosting provider what SMTP
server you can use to relay the mail for you.

You probably want to leave DEBUGGING as 1 until you have the program
working.

You probably are experiencing the error as described in :

I have been asked to take over the maintenance of a website =
http://www.aawindows.co.uk

Their Quote page is not working. This pops up:

!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" =
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">; Error: Bad or =

@recipients or @allow_mail_to. More information on filling in =
recipient/allow_mail_to form fields and variables can be found in the =
README file.=20

-------------------------------------------------------------------------=

      The recipient was: [ formtest@... ]=20

This is what they have on their quote.htm page:

   <input type=3D"hidden" name=3D"recipient" =

   <input type=3D"hidden" name=3D"redirect" value=3D"../thankyou.htm">

On their server, they don't seem to have formmail.pl but formmail.pl.htm

I would have thought the recipient would have been =
[sales@...]?

I hope you can help because I am completely lost here.

Kind regards,

BTW this is an old old version of FormMail - please download the latest
version (3.14c1) from:

   http://nms-cgi.sf.net/scripts.shtml

For security reasons the recipient address also has to be configured
into the FormMail.pl itself - you will need to edit the FormMail.pl so
that the line that looks like:

   @allow_mail_to =3D qw(<some addresses>);

is like:

   @allow_mail_to =3D qw(formtest@...);

(you may have other addresses inside the brackets.)

Hi there,
I'm using your TFmail script for a webform. When I hit 'Submit', I get an
error page that says
"CGI Error: The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a
complete set of HTTP headers."

I've checked all the file paths. ALL files are in the cgi-bin/tfmail/
directory.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Abhi

Dunno,
there are a number of possibilities most of which are discussed on

   http://nms-cgi.sf.net/scripts.shtml

The actual text of the error that upset the web server however will be
in the web servers error logs and that should probably be the first
place that you look.

Hi there! 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I hope you can help me with my problem.... I am currently building a website using ms frontpage as editor, I am now adding a form to this, but my server (easyspace) does not support the extensions, so I am currently trying to modify & upload TFmail.pl for a cgi script to handle this, I have modified it as per the read me, and uploaded to&nbsp;my cgi-bin but,,,, whenever I try to run - or&nbsp;'use' the form the error message is returned as error 500...premature end of script headers:TFmail.pl....any ideas on where I am going wrong (or the script is wrong or in need of modifying) the first line of the script is as follows: 
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT

There are a number of reasons why you might get the 500 response from
the server, many opf which are discussed in

   http://nms-cgi.sf.net/faq_prob.html

however the actual description of the error that caused the problem will
be in the servers error log - if you don't know how to access them then
you will need to ask your ISP to help you with that.

Please can you show us the configuration from the search.pl file and
some indication of the structure of your site - it is probable that the
@files or $basedir configuration are incorrect.

Thank you for responding.  Below is the config for the program.  The site is
a very straightforward htdocs/html (15 pages) arrangement

I think you probably want to have something like:

  @files = ('*','*.htm','*.html','*/*.htm','*/*.html');

If you have additional levels of folders then you can add more elements
with '*/' on the front.

Hi,
I am having trouble getting the form to send to 2 different email addresses.
I have put in the following: recipient_alias = ('animals'
=>'quotes@...,bananaquote@...',
);

The idea being that 1 form comes direct to me and the second one goes to
trigger my auto-responder.
For some reason this does not seem to work. Can you suggest any reasons why
not?
Best wishes
Peter

How doesn't it work? are you getting an error message or experiencing
some other behaviour - I am assuming that the missing '%' sigil on
recipient_alias is a typo in your message rather than what you actually
have in your configuration.

Please could you send us your entire configuration as well as a link to
your form page so we can see what is happening ourselves.

Maybe you need to put guestbook.pl in a cgi-bin subdirectory of your
site, your hosting provider should be able to tell you.

It looks like your scgi-bin doesn't work.  Only the server admin is
likely to be able to fix this.
