I'm PAYING for this account. PHP works, but my form isn't.

Just did. The help files revealed that geocities does support PHP, and the PHP mail() function. But it looks like they have disabled more than half of everything else! So there must be something my script uses, which they've disabled. I'm using Dodosmail script versio 2.5 if anyone if any of you uber geeks would like to test. And here's geocities support chart for PHP:

ANSWER: Found it myself. Turns out that geocities has a setting which only allows the "From" email address to come from its current domain. So if your script specifies a "From" address, instead of allowing the server to specify it- geocities might kick it back. My particular script was set up to include the From email addr, and the email senders name in one. Geocities apparently didnt like that. All did was comment out the "From" header info in my Dodosmail script.
