This may be more appropriate in another perl forum, but I'll ask any way.
I have two perl scripts, 1 running in the cgi-bin with a browser and an email output and the email address to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and this runs fine. I have another perl script running in another folder(out side the cgi-gin). This second script runs fine (browser output) but the email does not work correctly(I get a default from [EMAIL PROTECTED]). The email part of the script is identical in both. But in the second script the server bulks at the email address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] and will only run on [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note the \)
Sheabang line in both scripts are lines are #!/usr/bin/perl and the email directive is /usr/sbin/sendmail
First script is /home/myplace/www/cg-bin/script1.pl and the second is /home/myplace/www/anotherfolder/script2.cgi. Is there something between a .pl and a .cgi extension.???
1st Script:
open (MAIL, "|$mailprog -t") or &error($errmsg = "Can't access $mailprog!\n");
print MAIL "To: $recipient\n";
print MAIL "From: $contact\n";
print MAIL "Reply-to: $contact\n";
print MAIL "Subject: $subject\n\n";
print MAIL " -------------------------------------------------------\n";
print MAIL " The following form was sent by: $yname\n";
print MAIL " on $date\n\n";
print MAIL " -------------------------------------------------------\n\n";
foreach $key (keys(%FORM)) {
print MAIL "$key : $FORM{$key}\n\n";
}
close(MAIL);
2nd Script:
open (MAIL, "|$mailprog -t") or &error($errmsg = "Can't access $mailprog!\n");
print MAIL "To: $recipient\n";
print MAIL "From: $vendorname\n";
print MAIL "Reply-to: $vendormail\n";
print MAIL "Subject: $subject\n\n";
print MAIL " -------------------------------------------------------\n";
print MAIL " $vendorname has updated the calendar\n";
print MAIL " to the Myplace Listing Calendar Database\n";
print MAIL " on $tdate.\n\n";
print MAIL " -------------------------------------------------------\n\n";
close (MAIL);
I've pondered on this for some time now before coming to you gurus. If you can shed some light on the subject for me great.
Cheers
