in reply to CGI Header problem/question

Had this exact same problem myself the otherday, was an exact copy of working code, and it ended up being #1 in my list of things to check.

1) Check permissions, of the file AND the folder (read: check suexec.log too)
2) Doublecheck you can exec cgi's in that folder
3) Triplecheck the shebang.

    OK, file this whole thing under "Oh My Dog I'm missing the obvious".

    Shebang? What shebang? I was running the script from the command line via perl mail_it.cgi.

    And of course once I add a shebang it works fine. Doh! Thanks.
