Well basically if you are editing FormMail.pl you could just download it then open it up with notpad, then make the correct adjustments there. Geocities does not run any server-side software (PHP, Perl, ASP). You would want to find a good pay hosting service to run server-side scripts.

geocities does offer server-side scripting, but only with a special paid account.

you might like to use a free service like tripod , which will limit your daily mail sending limit to 40-50 emails.

Wow, they now offer server-side options. I havent used any of those services in a long time. I got hooked up with payed hosting long ago since they had better customer support and service. :o

Are you talking about Matt Wrights Formmail.pl ? If so I recommend http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/
not matts scripts, written by the London.pm perl mongers to be secure drop in replacements to Matt Wrights scripts.
