If you are running a form mail script you need to be running the form mail script from here:

NMS Scripts
http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/scripts.shtml

Form to email scripts are notoriously hard to design correctly to make sure that you are not open up security holes on our server.
More info is available in the site FAQ:
http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/faq_nms.html

The NMS Scripts were prepared by highly regarded members of the Perl as an answer to all of the poorly written insecure version of similar scripts out there.

I implore you heed my warning unless you want to be a relay for spammers e-mail.
