Instructions of how to use mf000001.pl

[pnagames]

hi

does anyone have any instructions of how to use the above mailscript file or maybe the guys at Actinic have somewhere detailed instructions?

i want to create a subscribe/unsubscribe to newsletter and also a reccomend a friend page.

both require the use of the mailscript so they can send the emails to the respective mailboxes.

Not a direct answer to your question, but how about using formmail.pl instead?

Hi Duncan

as far as i know the formmail will require quite a few changes so it can be used.

and also i prefered to use the one provided by actinic

If you are looking for a referr a friend link then this is covered in the Knowledge Base http://knowledge.actinic.com/acatalo...ut.html#aKB376 . As for the subscribe link you can use the existing contact form in something like this ..
<a href="http://www.yourserver.com/cgi-bin/mf000001.pl?ACTION=SHOWFORM">Sign-up here for newsletter</a>

A search on the forum will provide several threads dealing with the 'subscribe for newsletter' issue.

Kind regards,
