In the email script there is a text area for comments. However when I submit the form comments never are mailed only the name and subject.
What am I missing?

I guess I am missing something.
I made the changes and still the same results.
Why the comments won't post is a mystery to me. My emasil editor is opening up, the subject and name is there but no comments.
I really appreciate all the time you are spending to help me.

I'm not sure if this is one of your scripts or not but the problem I am having with this one is the $lib path
Here is a part of the script. It is of course a cgi script.
Thought you may know something about it.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
$lib="/library/emailformreturn.cgi"; # Default path for loading libraries
require "$lib/cgi-lib.pl";
$mailProgram = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
# Email id to send the email to

That is perl or some othr lang I am not familiar with.I used the script to send email to me using my default mail client MS Outlook
I 'll use the same code to send you the mail message you should get it in few mins.
if you get the mail, then there is certainly something wrong with the mail script on your machine
