I've been working on this for DAYS! A major part of business is being able to contact the company... I can't get ANY formmail program to work. I'm using Matt Wright's FormMail and I can't even get that to work! I was wondering why I wasn't receiving any emails!

Any suggestions? FormMail works fine, it goes through everything as it should. I've determined it's not the mail server because I send my self an email from another server. My guess is a config problem with sendmail. Any help is greatly appreciated!

What is your maillog saying, if anything?

Where can I find maillog?

Be careful, but this should not hurt you:

As root:

tail -f /var/log/maillog

As you can see from the title by my name... i'm still a newbie.. so please take this for what it's worth.. and consider the source! :)

I seem to remember having some trouble with sendmail and when I tried to debug it, this is what I found.... I had to send the form email to an existing pop email box... I could not just send it to anyemail@mydomain.com and let the default email address pick it up. Also make sure your "referrers" are correct in your script. (found that one out the hard way too!)

I don't know how, or even why it worked for me... but give it a try, it couldn't hurt!

knowing enough to be dangerous.... if that.

Kerbash makes a good point. When the server is handling mail directly, it needs to know exactly where to send the e-mail.

can you post a link to the script so we can see the exact error, also what version of the script are you running? we use formmail and it works fine. make sure you are using the latest version due to spammer abusing older versions of the script.

Actually, everything on the web site functions properly... I fill out the form, I receive confirmation; but when I check my POP I have no emails waiting...

I'm using NeoMail and I can successfuly send emails from that, but no other formmail like program will work. I've tried various others and nothing works.

I guess I'll keep digging before I hire someone to fix it.

Forgot to mention, when I go into formmail directly through the browser I get a message stating this is formmail. So I know form mail works properly...
