once upon a time long ago, i kludged together a custom script for use with UBB.c 6.5.0 that was simple email wrapper. Submit a static html form and send the info the user filled out to an email addy. I was 110% perl idgit when i kludged that together. But it worked, and was such a painfully experience i swore i'd never touch anything with a .cgi extension ever again.
ha! fast forward several years, my second ubb.c site comes along and I actually get halfway good at doing ubb.c mods, and vastly improve myself so that I'm currently only a 87.5% perl idgit
and alas oh whoa is me - i need the same lil band-aid trick to submit a static html form and run thru my ubb.c email utilites. so I took my old 6.5.0 custom script, compared it to a 6.7.2 custom i wrote recently using Alan's generic portal/index page mod and attempted to redo my old rox_mail_wrap.cgi to make it 6.7.2 compatible.
and yeah you prolly guessed it if ya'all remember all my painfully clueless questions from long past... i failed miserably! i failed big! i failed everywhich way possible!! oh my, it was quite the error message extravaganza... 18 pages long on a printout.
but after a day, I fiddled diddled it down to a half page error msg shown here:

TIA!!!
