It may be that somehow you failed to post all the code -- the error message cites "line 167" of the perl script, but when I loaded that code into my own text editor, there were only about 105 lines.

Could you please figure out, using your own text editor and your own copy of the code, where line 167 is? If that line is included in the code that you have posted, please indicate which line it was. (If you didn't originally post all the code, please be sure to show us the part that is causing the error.)

As a wild guess, if the line causing the error happens to be this one: 

$objMail->Send($from,$to,$subject,$mailbody,$AttachFile);

[download]
then maybe you need to do some sanity checking on the contents of the variables being passed to this method, before you pass them to the method. (Since these values are coming from a CGI form, you should most likely be doing some taint checking on them as well.)

Hmm... just noticed that you seem to be using the same email address for both the "$from" and the "$to" args for $objMail->Send -- this might lead some folks to think that you are a spammer.
