To all computer geeks out there:
I installed some CGI scripts on a site I am working on. The scripts are basically a form to mail set up. It is writing to the database file but not sending the emails even though it tells me everything is alright. Any ideas?

They are Perl scripts but I don't know if the mail program is sendmail. How do I find out? 😀
if it is there the system will tell you.
my initial thought was to find out if the script tries to use sendmail and there is no sendmail on your system.
there are possibly better ways to figure this out and perhaps someone else will post a different idea, but till someone does ...
also, you could ask your site administrator what is being used.
you got the scripts from some place on the net right? you could look in it to see what the mail program being called is. if you don't know how, let me know the name of the script and i'll try to find out.
