Hi there,

I am looking for a way to keep users from spamming or being abused to spam
on webservers. If a user can install FormMail.pl he can easily be abused by
spammers. Easiest would be to forbid emailing at all but customers need
these "feedback"-forms on their websites.
If this isn't the right newsgroup to post this question, please point me to
the right one.

Thanks
Felix
