Hello,

your PATH-Variable should reflect your Perl-Installation.
On my System this is:

F:\>path
PATH=D:\Programme\Apple\Developer\Executables\Utilities;D:\Pro
gramme\Apple\Devel
oper\Executables;D:\Programme\Apple\Local\Library\Executables;
D:\Programme\Apple
\Library\JDK\bin;D:\Programme\Apple\Library\Executables;D:\Progr
amme\Perl\bin\;D
:\Perl\5.6.0\bin\;C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;D:\Programme\cyg
win\bin;D:\Programm
e\cygwin\usr\bin;D:\Programme\cygwin\usr\local\bin;D:\Programme\
Python20\;D:\Pro
gramme\jdk1.2\bin;D:\gnu\usr\local\wbin;C:\Programme\texmf\mikte

e\Komodo\python\;D:\P
rogramme\cygwin\bin;D:\Programme\ssl\bin;D:\Programme\gnu\usr\
local\wbin;D:\Prog
ramme\vunix

If you add  #!/usr/bin/perl (the exact path to perl not neccesary)  to 
the first line of perl-scripts, xitami/perl should work with any 
virualhost.


You don't need these free mailing scripts; better do your own:


#!/usr/bin/perl 

use MIME::Lite;

$mailhost = "someMailAlias";
$From = 'someOne@somewhere.net';
$To = 'anotherOne@outside.net';
$Subject = 'mailing';
$text .= "$something\n";
 MIME::Lite -> send('smtp', $mailhost, Timeout => 60);
 $msg = MIME::Lite -> new(From => $From, To => $To, Subject 
=> $Subject, Data => $text);
$msg -> send;
undef $msg;



So long,

Peter
