sending email

[stryker321]

Hi im trying to send email throught tripod. they dont use sendmail, instead they use a mail module.

require TripodMail;
$MAIL = new TripodMail;
$mail_template = "./flintstones_mail.txt";
%variables = ('bubba' => 'zeus@mail.com');
$MAIL->sendMail($mail_template, \%variables);
thats the code... you need a mail template that says

to: emial
from: $bubba
subject: fsdfjafja;
textfjsldkfjaslfjasfjalk;

and u need the hash variables or something... how can i get it so i can get variables from a form and put them into this code so it sends an email, cuz with the mail template it looks like u can only send one type of email.... or how could i set the value of 'bubba' => 'to a variable' ?? what does => do??? tripods mail is stupid

Hi stryker,

Try something like this:

use CGI;
require TripodMail; 
...
%variables = ('bubba' => param("from")); 
$MAIL->sendMail($mail_template, \%variables);
