I am running NetWare-Enterprise-Web-Server/5.1 and mercury 1.48 mail system
(different server).

What do I need to do to get the contents of a form emailed back to me or
appended to a file. Have tried various CGI/PERL FORMS but cant get them to
work.

you can use the sendmail.pl and presendmail.pl files that ship with nw5.1.

There was an error in one of the sendmail sample files IIRC, I think it
was the sample .html file forgot to call presendmail.

I would take Mitchell up on his offer to fix them, he is much better at
PERL than I am.
