hi
i think i see your problem
if you edit this line in the "comment out" section
open (mailfile,">>".$mailfile);
to
open (mailfile,">> ".$mailfile) or die "$0: couldnt open $mailfile :$!";
note the space after the >> in ">> "
you could also write ">> $mailfile" instead of ">> ".$mailfile
but that's just a matter of taste
hope it works
in any case it will show the error perl generates

Subject: I'm stuck
Hi,
I've a little problem.
The next cgiscript doesn't work. (The mailfile will be created but i get
a server error at my browser)
But if i comment the 3 lines between "comment out", then this script
will work. (i see the generated HTML-page at my browser)
Does anybody see what the problem is ?
Thanks in advance
Peter
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use CGI;
$query = new CGI;
$teamleader = "me.myself\@my_island.see";
$mailfile = "/home/myself/mymail.".$$;
# Comment out these lines and this perl script will work
open (mailfile,">>".$mailfile);
print mailfile "Originator : ".$query->param('ORIG')."\n";
close (mailfile);
# End comment out
#unlink ($mailfile);
print $query->header('text/html');
print $query->start_html('Input CR','me.myself\@my_island.see');
print $query->h1('Your request is sended to the teamleader
:'.$teamleader);
print $query->end_html();
