in reply to Logging IP etc.

Although you don't need the quotes around $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'} it should still work as perl will interpolate the value into the double quoted string. Q: What does a load of rubbish look like? Q: What does your code look like? Without more details there is nothing in what you have posted that is terribly wrong so not much else to say...

cheers

    Hi,

    At the top of the script:

    # IP/Host Address
    $scisukvisitor= "$ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}"


    Which then uses the following later on:


    # Open The Mail Program
    open(MAIL,"|$mailprog -t");


    # BCC line added to BCC mail to SCIS UK Admin
    print MAIL "To: $Config{'recipient'}\n";
    print MAIL "BCC: $scisuk_email\n";
    print MAIL "From: $Config{'email'} ($Config{'realname'})\n";
    # Check for Message Subject
    if ($Config{'subject'}) { print MAIL "Subject: $Config{'subject'}\n\n" }
    else
    { print MAIL "Subject: SCIS UK Limited Form Submission\n\n" }
    print MAIL "Below is the result of your feedback form. It was submitted by\n";
    print MAIL "$Config{'realname'} ($Config{'email'}) on $date\n";
    print MAIL "$scisukvisitor\n";
    print MAIL "-" x 75 . "\n\n";


    etc...


    Which looks like:
