Hi Stuart

I actually have 2 completely different boxes running Apache/PHP and
sendmail (actually one is sendmail and the other is qmail) and I have
the exact same problem on both.

I thought maybe this magic-quotes-gpc is my problem but one box has them
"Off" and the other has them "On" so I guess that's not the problem.

Also, sometimes you get 3-4 signups in one form (from the previous
people that clicked Submit) but also sometimes you get 1/2/3/4 emails
from one Submit.

I'm hoping you or someone on the Slug list has had this issue before!
(and solved it, of course)

Thanks again!

Gonzalo
