I just received a notification from my webhost

Please make sure your applications and scripts are PHP 5 compatible by the end of the year,

Is formmail compatible with PHP 5

I am not a techy, but I did scour the site and did not see anything regarding PHP version.
Thank you

I should have added this part - sorry

a migration guide (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=uzsodccab.0.fzbucecab.rmv9g9bab.115&ts=S0270&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.php.net%2Fmanual%2Fen%2Fmigration5.php) is available. With the introduction of PHP 5, the register_globals (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=uzsodccab.0.gzbucecab.rmv9g9bab.115&ts=S0270&p=http%3A%2F%2Fus2.php.net%2Fmanual%2Fen%2Fini.core.php%23ini.register-globals) directive will be switched to OFF. Please make sure your scripts have been coded to function correctly with register_globals set to OFF. This is a permanent switch, the setting has been completely removed from PHP 6. MySQL will also be upgraded to the latest version 5 release at the end of this year.

This is a continuation of the email above from webhost

Hi,

Yes, there are a number of people using FormMail with PHP 5 right now.

thank you very much for your reply. I am very pleased with your formmail. I have added it to 8 of my sites along with the basic captcha and it is working very well.

And my webhost is happier I am receiving much less spam.

I need to do a little more refining on one I think because am still receiving some errors with formmail script error reports that has a bunch of urls.

But all in all it is great,

Thank you for offering it.
