The thing is, it does work and i get the results so it must be accepting
it but it leaves an Internal error message afterwards.

When I asked the host if it was OK to upload formmail they said
"formmail.pl is not accepted on our servers, thru a security issue we
had to remove this extension. The tricky thing to make it work is to
rename the formmail.pl to something else like feedback.pl."

Thanks
