Novice question

I have just moved my www.brazzil.com page from Interland to Lunarpages. In my form page there I had something very simple so people could fill up a form with their addresses ( http://www.brazzil.com/subscrib.htm )

These were the lines that made it work:

<form METHOD="POST" ACTION="/scripts/mailform">
  <input type="hidden" name="mailreceiver" value="brazzil@brazzil.com"><input type="hidden"
  name="subject" value="Brazzil Subscription"><input type="hidden" name="htmlfile"
  value="http://www.brazzil.com/thanks.htm"><blockquote>

I have changed ACTION="/scripts/mailform" to several things including the sendmail path "/usr/sbin/sendmail", but it didn't work. All I got was an error page:
The requested URL /usr/sbin/sendmail was not found on this server

Something I am doing wrong?

Is there a simple way of solving this without the use of scripts, phps and other stuff which I don't understand?

TIA for  any help

There is a feedback form which you can install from the CPanel.

It is easier to use the one that lunarpages provides.

If you login to your control panel,

then click on advanced,

then click on Cgi center

There's one called FormMail Clone which should be suitable.

CGI E-mail would also be good.

Sweet!

Thanks, I never even knew those tools existed on LunarPages!

Nor did I! I'd totally forgotten!
