      Re: [IMail Forum] imailsrv2.pl & IIS5 Problem on Tuesday 8:04:31 PM

I  struggled  just  like  you  for  almost  a  week. I understand your
frustration.  We  do  a  lot  in  Perl  here and PHP... and one of the
original  big  helpers  here,  Dusty  recommended  these. I hate to be
repetitive  but you will save tons of time and never have to debug the
Perl script if you just download these free utilities...

QMailer is at http://software.dolist.net/qmailer.asp
LMailer is at http://software.dolist.net/lmailer.asp

I spent days on the imailsrv2.pl and never got it to work properly.
These took about 5 minutes each... and run much much faster than any
Perl interpreted scripting.
