What is the most secure type of formmail to use?
The one hardest for spammers to hack and use?

Kind of heavy on the features, but I like this one.

Yeah "PHP FormMail" is a pretty popular little script, although PHP's mail() function does it for me :) I guess it depends on what you need it for, either way PHP is usually relatively secure

Why don't you just write your own script to do exactly what you want from it?

Cool. Thanks.

Since we're talking about PHPFormMail, about 1 in every 20 people (that I know of) has a problem submitting a form to me. They get the "Coming from an unauthorized domain" error. Anyone know how to solve that?

vito, do you have both "domain.com" and "www.domain.com" in the referrers?

Some ppl might use just the domain name without the "www".

Vito,
One of our clients is complaining about the same problem.
Let me know if anyone knows what causes that, and how we can fix it.

Ijust have order forms e mailed to me. Looking at it from a hacking stand point and then using my script for spam.
