Hi Ryan

here is an excerpt from one of my pages using form_mail, you may want to
compare it to whatever it is you are doing:

--- snip ---
[perl arg=sub
interpolate=1]form_mail('adresseintrag@pc-mall.de','Adresseintrag in der
pc-mall: [scratch type]','[value email]', <<ENDOFMAIL )

Adresseintrag

lotsastuff

ENDOFMAIL
[/perl]
--- snip ---

Hope this helps, works for me.

Frank
