hi
I just have a quick question (i hope). I'm trying to set up a mailing list
subscription page. I'm using the following variables:
$mail_address -> where to send the subcription request (ie.
majordomo@my.domain.com)
$mail_subject
$mail_list -> the name of the mailing list
$mail_reply_address -> the address of the person seeking to be subcribed
... I've echoed the variables through the action page and everything comes
through fine. I'm trying to use the mail() function to send the subcription
request to majordomo (which also seems to be formed correctly), the code is:
$errormesg=mail($mail_address, $mail_subject, "subscribe " . $mail_list . "
" . $mail_reply_address);
... but I'm getting the following message back from majordomo:
"MAJORDOMO ABORT (mj_majordomo)!!
majordomo@apipli.murdoch.edu.au
: www-data <apache> is not a valid return address."
.... any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
tks
Andrew
