These never have worked well. Use free qmailer and lmailer:
http://www.dolist.net/qmailer.asp
Here is a typical form, which is even similar to ASP and FP:
<form ACTION="http://208.45.107.150/scripts/lmailer.exe" METHOD="GET">
<input type=hidden Name="SmtpServer" VALUE="io.wyndows.com">
<input type=hidden Name="Subject" VALUE="Subscribe Activator(tm) Desk News">
<input type=hidden Name="Url" VALUE="http://www.safewin.com/thankyou.htm">
<input type=hidden Name="Recipient" VALUE="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">
<input type=hidden Name="CMD0" VALUE="subscribe" >
<input type=hidden Name="CMD1" VALUE="actnews">
<br>enter your email address:<br><input NAME="Sender" VALUE="" size=60 maxlength=50>
<br>enter your full name:<br><input NAME="CMD2" VALUE="" size=60 maxlength=50>
<br><br>
<input TYPE="SUBMIT" VALUE="subscribe to email newsletter">
</form>

I> Michael,
I> More info...
I> I copied the contents of imailsrv.pl into a new file "test2.pl" and switched the
form code in the "mailing-lists.htm" to see if there was some problem with the .pl
file itself. It still failed.
I> I then tried to directly open the test2.pl in my browser and it told me:
I> Error!
I> Your e-mail address was bad! Use your browsers back button to correct.
I> This tells me that the .pl file is running.
I> Now, imailsrv.pl uses cgi.pm, which I found in my d:\perl\lib directory. My next
question is: is cgi.pm automatically "installed" when I install PERL, or do I need to
do something so that PERL
I> knows where it is? As you can tell, I know a little about PERL, but not much.
I> Basically, I'm wondering if it's failing because it can't find or use cgi.pm.

I> Well, you can make sure that the path to the .pl is correct. Sometimes changing
../ ot just / or even ./ will work. Don't ask me why but it is just what I have found.
The other is to make sure
I> all of the hidden fields are correct.

I> Michael,
I> The extension doesn't seem to matter. I changed the file "mailing-lists.htm"
back to .html and it does the same thing. I'm currently using the early version that
doesn't do the e-mail
I> verification, just to simplify things. It fails on SUBMIT to the .pl...and it
looks to me like it can't find the .pl file...but it's there???

I> I think I know your problem. It is looking for .html files and you have .htm.
Take a look at the file exts on your server after you uploaded it.

I> Yes, I used a script similar to that from Microsofts website. Executed it
from the same directory as follows:
I> http://../cgi/test.pl?
I> Don't click the link, the file isn't there anymore. The script ran fine
though.

I> I have a Win2k Server running IIS 5.
I> I've installed the latest ActivePERL and I can see where it was
configured in IIS.
I> I have downloaded the imailsrv2.zip file and put the files in their
correct locations.
I> I have run the "imailcgi -install..." successfully.
I> I have edited the .html file.
I> When I bring up the html file and click submit, the screen changes
to a 404 Page Not Found error. The address line is referring to:
I> http://www.innovative-truck-products.com/cgi/imailsrv2.pl
I> This is the correct path to the script. I have enabled "script
source access".
I> Why would this come up "not found"???
