  Click here to return

We have blocked the use of FormMail versions prior to 1.92 due to a major security hole.

Please upgrade immediately.

To setup formmail correctly you must complete the following steps:

  • Setup the sendmail path: $mailprog = '/usr/sbin/sendmail -i -t';
  • Setup correct referrers: @referers = ('yourdomain.co.nz');
  • Make sure the domain that receives the form responses is included in the referrer list above
  • Save and upload file in ASCII format (if you upload it in Binary formmail will not work)
  • change the permissions of the file to 755 (chmod 755)
