[KLUG Members] Now, yet another problem

Apache 2.0, RH 8.0. PHP 4.2.2

This is the box from which I was trying to send mail, and
we know the transports work. Actually, I test the mail()
function in php, and it is just fabulous.

Now, I wrote a page that lets the user fill in all kinds of
stuff, and then he can hit a SEND button, and it's going
to use all the information to compose a mail message that 
gets sent... well, somewhere.

Except, it doesn't!

I check to make sure that the user has filled out certain
fields on the form, and if they're still blank, I raise
a ruckus, and fail the send. The user can hit another 
button and go back and fix the problem....

Actually, I know all the logic works just great; I used 
these pages on another websote, then swiped them for the 
current effort.

Instead of sending the mail message, I get the error page, 
but it shows that all the required fields are blank...

Indeed, no data was transferred to the server.

I know from my last bout with this that in /etc/php.ini,
file_uploads = On

So have the rules changed that much since the last time
I did this, 2 months (and 2 patch levels) ago?

If not, what's the solution here?
