Newsletter and Mass emailing
When I try to mass email or send a newsletter I get the following error, I tried reloading my scripts and I also checked nph_email.cgi. Everything seems to be in order including the permissions. I do have the subject and
Message box filled out. I do not have my admin pw protected so you can see it at the following address...

Why have you posted a duplicate thread when your original thread is only about 4-5 threads down the list in any case?

You are less likely to get an answer by doing this.

I posted this message again because I added the URL to my admin page, this was not in the original message. I posted the URL so some one could see first hand what I was talking about.
I joined this forum just recently and am not that familiar with the rules yet.
Thanks

You should've simply EDITED your original POST and then POSTED a REPLY to bring the ORIGINAL topic to the top of the forum...and Paul is right...this time, that you should not post duplicate Topics, because it makes it difficult for others to help you and also to find relevant Threads via the forum's search engine.

You an installer, can't you figure it out? Wink

I really don't know what to tell this person other than to re-install the nph-email.cgi file.

I re-installed nph-email a number of times and I have the same problem.I also re-installed the entire Links 2 script, I set the paths, permissions, etc.
It's the only part of the script thats not working.
