I have a form that says that the results have submitted, by nothing shows up in the emails inbox. I have checked the recipient, method and action in the form itself, which was made in frontpage. I have also checked the referers and the sendmail location in the formmail file, all is good. The email also is recieving mail from else where.

I have another website that uses the same format and works fine by the same hosting company. I even went as far to try the form that doesn't work on the website that does and it submits fine, which suggests the form is fine. I also can bounce the form from the nonworking site off of the formmail from the site that does work and it submits fine.

I think that it is something to do with the server for the website, but when I call they say everything is fine and it must be a scripting error which they do not provide support for, so I am out of luck.

Here is the punch though, the form has worked fine for over a year and then just stopped working with no files being changed around that time.

Does anyone have any suggestions, I have spent hours on this.

When you say you know the path to sendmail is correct, is this based on what your server reveals in an env check, or in an up-to-date FAQ, or what you assume it should be?

I have the path to sendmail change during a server upgrade by the host.

Have you tried different locations?
/usr/sbin/sendmail
/usr/lib/sendmail
