[thelist] FormMail

[Chris Price]

I wonder if anyone can help me.

I have attempted to install NMS FormMail Version 3.09c1 and I am getting
nowhere with the debugging. I'm not familiar with Perl or cgi scripts
generally and the error output is puzzling me.

It says there is a parse error in "use strict"
When I take that out it throws a wobbly at "use vars"
It doesn't seem to like qw() so I've replaced them with ('','')

The rest of the errors are to do with the non-user-serviceable section so
either the script is faulty or the server uses a queer setup.

No doubt you'll need more info but the (truncated) error output is:

parse error at line 11, next 2 tokens "use strict"
parse error at line 159, next token "}"
parse error at line 1127, next 2 tokens "local $SIG"
parse error at line 1127, next 2 tokens "CGI:"
parse error at line 1861, next token "}"
parse error at line 1867, next 2 tokens "CGI:"
parse error at line 2049, next token "}"
parse error at line 2055, next 2 tokens "CGI:"
parse error at line 2955, next token "}"
parse error at line 2961, next 2 tokens "CGI:"
