i set up the form, it worked perfectly when i tested it with several of my email addresses, but when i changed it to the clients final address, it stopped working. I get no error message, nothing shows up on my error log, simpy no mail or reply is sent. I tried both setting and not setting ok addresses, and setting the addresses in the form and the cgi, and nothing works. Im really puzzled, as there is nothing unusual (no special characters, no hotmail or yahoo) about the address i'm trying to use...

I have had the same problem. There could be several reasons for this happening. 1. The server or web space he is on, has been banned from smtp and sendmail transmitions by several ISP's due to some sort of spam. If the domain is ex. mydomain.com then try using info@mydomain.com / if it still does not work then that is not the problem. 2. Sendmail or SMTP may not be working in the server. Let me know if you can not still get it to work. Seth
