Hello Randy,
First thing, you should be typing which perl, not which pearl. The
location of perl (unless you have modfied it) is: /usr/bin/perl, so
the fist line should read: #!/usr/bin/perl
Also, make sure that you have the path to sendmail set correctly:
/usr/sbin/sendmail
Finally, I noticed you calling the script as /formmail.cgi -- is the
script in the same directory as the HTML form? If so, there is no
need for the "/".
Hope these suggestions help...if you want to cut and paste your code,
we can take a look at it.
