how to put a list of the e-mail addresses that FormMail.pl can send e-mail to

[sczmagich]

Hi all,

I just want to ask what is the syntax to send the form to multiple email address

for example,

@allow_mail_to = qw([e-mail] [e-mail]);

the email will will only send to [e-mail]..im wondering how to send the email to [e-mail]

i also try to put 2 lines for @allow_mail_to

@allow_mail_to = qw([e-mail]);
@allow_mail_to = qw([e-mail]);

but this will not work..i try to put commas, etc. but will shows syntax error..

please advice..im really need this to be done..

thanks,
JV

First, where did you get the script from? Second, did it come with any examples or documentation?

The addresses may have to be comma or semi-colon separated. We would have to see the code of the script before we would know for sure.

Can you please post the code here, in the necessary code tags so that we can check it out?

Jeff

Thanks Jeff,

I dowloaded the form from this link:
http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/scripts.shtml
it only need to change
Line 47 @referers = qw(domain.com);
Line 48 @allow_mail_to = qw(you@domain);

the example is only for 1 recipient..there is no example for multiple email addresses..
this form works fine for only 1 recipient..i try to put multiple recipients but with no luck ;)

im not so sure how this work..

the code goes like this: (i apologized if i put the code here)

Fiirst, its not a problem that you placed the code in your post. That is what we actually prefer. What was a problem though is that you did not enclose the code in the code tags as I had asked that you do in my previous post. If you don't do this, we then have to clean up behind you.

As for the list of addresses, have you tried supplying multiple addresses on that particular line (as I had also previously suggested), and maybe separate each address with a comma or semi-colon?

Try that and see if it works.

Regards,

Jeff

read the "readme" file that comes with that script.
