Thanks Michael,

That's a hack I've used for a while, can't remeber why, possibly 
something to do with formmail in the past (aged memory and all 
that).  The customer is getting emails, but not the content 
generated from inputting into the php form - I'm guessing this is an 
oddity to do with different versions of php on the 550 to that on the 
BQ4.7

I'm not quite at the stage of wanting to: rm -rf /.      :-)
