[cobalt-users] Malformed Header Error

[John Ingham <machinist@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am having trouble getting my bnbform.cgi script to run from a ssl directory.

After completing the form and submitting the browser returns...

<<<<
Internal Server Error

complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform them of the
time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused
the error.

My error_log-ssl gives me this....

<<<<

from script. Bad header=nobody... Recipient names must:
/home/httpd/html/ssl/bnbform/bnbform.cgi
>>>>

When I run bnbform.cgi from a telnet command prompt... i.e. perl bnbform.cgi
... it appears to run well enough.
In fact when I run any cgi from the command line or via the web if they do not
use sendmail or access SMTP they return good results....

I have been at this for two many hours and am desparate for a solution.

Any and all advise would be appreciated.
