Thank you all for your suggestions. Although I have no idea why the old script stopped working on the new server, I was able to accomplish the same task with CURL functions.
Thank you again!

Have you properly escaped the $list, $email, and $password? If a space creeps up in there it could throw it all off. If all else fails, you might want to try the CURL functions to post and retrieve data from a remote script. ~Rolan _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
