| Seth, first of all, congratulations on a great piece of work. This script does everything I need.
Like a previous posting, I experience the same problem even with your standard form .HTML file. Auto-reply, one of the coolest features in your script, bounced back to me at the sendto address. Of course, I am using email INPUT in the form, and I enter a vlid address different from:
$sendto{"1"} = "info\@budapest-property.com"; | |

| Just for future reference for everyone else.
The 5 main posible reasons someone would not receive the autoreply.
1. The receivers mailbox could be full.
2. The provider is blocking your mail to recipient.
3. The recipients email is the same as sender.
4. The path to sendmail or the SMTP address is incorrect.
5. External relay settings
I tested the form.
I did not get the response and the problem is not one of the first 3.
If you are getting the bounces, that means that Sendmail should be working properly and it is not 4.
It could be #5 or some other problem.
To make a better guess, What is the exact error message you get from the bounced auto reply. This should pin point your problem.

| I don't get an error message!
It just all seems to work great...except the autoreply ends up in the wrong place. The script appears to think it did the right thing! | |

| I tried it, but no luck. Let me see if I followed your directions OK. I use Windows.
I downloaded only bizmail.cgi. I changed all the parameters that I had done in the old version, and I uploaded the new version with changed parameters to replace bizmail.cgi on my online /cgi-bin subdirectory. Did I do it correctly? It still does waht it's done before...email to wrong place.

| I found it. I actualy botched something when I last updated and uploaded the zip on the smtp.cgi.
IF you are using the Windows version, just re download the zip file, and reconfigure and upload just the bizmail.cgi file.
If you are using the Linux version just download the zip file and re-upload the smtp.cgi file. If downloading the Linux version no reconfig is required.
