Formmail will not send from the submitted email address

Deprecated

Problem:

Formmail from Matt's Script Archive will not send from an email address other than my main Just Host account.

Solution:

The problem is that this script is outdated and does not conform to current protocols for sending email. To have the sender of the email be anything different, you will need to use a different form processor. In the CGI Center, we offer Justhost.com form script you can use. Here is a URL to a collection of several other different form processing scripts:
