I received your PM msg and thanks.

I have double checked everything and I just don't see any errors.

I am beginning to believe that the web host email server IP is on a blacklist like SpamCop and the 'returned mail' is being sent to dump without me seeing it.  It is 4am here. I am going to call web host later this morning and have them verify my suspicions.

I don't want you wasting time if that is the problem.  It is the only other thing I can think of to eliminate.

I will let you know when I find out.

Thanks for all your help so far.

I see ...

Some remarks regarding the function get_path:
there is implemented a methode that tries to find
- the path to the directory where the data files are stored (the basepath)
and another methode that tries to find
- the path to 'sendmail' (a system program of the server)

If the path to 'sendmail' can't be detected, the value of $config{'web_server'} will be 0 and each email-message will appear on the monitor.

Resolved.

Thanks for your help.

I knew the script looked ok.

It was a rare happening that the web host mail server WAS on a blacklist as of 8pm yesterday evening.  I did not receive the return mail because the service was dumping all of it to lessen the bandwidth - they told me.

Thank you again.
