1. Don't use Notepad -- it can add all sorts of extra badness to your scripts that will make it fail, including the wrong line endings.

2. When you're working with Mac v. Windows v. Unix, you can have a pile of different line endings that will screw up your scripting.

I'm not sure about TextEdit, but BBEdit and Tex-Edit other text editing applications allow you to save as a particular kind of file. Hold on, I'll open TextEdit. Yes you can set plain text to Unicode.

BBEdit allows you to specify Unix, however. Mac line endings will cause problems on PCs and sometimes on Unix servers. So will special hidden spaces -- one thing I use frequently is BBEdit because it shows hidden spaces (they look like spaces, but are special characters).

Sorry, I forgot one piece of information:

When I look in the cgi(mailform.cgi), it states that it is a generic cgi email generator and it uses sendmail. In the instructions, the creator states that you can modify the destination email address as well as the correct directory for the sendmail program.
