Hello,
I have a 6.1-PRERELEASE box which is running Apache 2.2 on my home lan.
The machine's name is 'moe.local'.
I have a DynDNS.com account, with the domain name
'bubbabbq.homeunix.net'.
I want to add a form to the website where users can send me an email.
I've looked at FormMail.pl and cgiemail (from MIT).
It seems that FormMail has too many security holes, and cgiemail
won't work because sendmail is only configured to deliver mail to
local accounts.
I would prefer to write a cgi script using /usr/bin/mail, and I was
wondering if anyone had any experience doing this, or could tell me
about any security risks.
My research didn't turn up much at all.
Thanks!
