Rick,

I appreciate the input, but I know enough about perl
to get me in trouble!

Like I said, I've been using this form for about four
years now, and this is the first time this has happened.

When you say upload a good copy of formail dot pl, do
you mean the one from Matt's script archive?

 Also, when you say my perl script looks empty, my host
(XO) makes me use a formail dot pl, and a formail dot cfg
I guess to prevent unauthorized use. Are you looking at the
cfg file? Because the pl file looks like it's full of script (which,
like I said, I know very little about)
