Hello- I am definitely not a programmer but I am definitely an admirer of those who do.
I need help. I spoke with Tim Maher and he sent me here.

I have a cgi written in PERL that processes a form that includes sending out email. The script works fine however it needs to be CHANGED from using SENDMAIL to SMTP. The HTML points to the cgi and on submit utilizes send_msg_to_list.

Below are those snippets from the script with references to SENDMAIL.

Can anyone help??

Thank you.

Mail server is smtp.fatcow.com


send_msg_to_list
