Jeff,
Make sure that in the Submit button you are sending it URL Encoded instead of the FDF data option.  The FormMail.cgi probably doesn't understand fdf, only the URL HTTP post format.
 
Someone may have a cgi that will send you the fdf formatted data, that way you could import it back into your form.  With the End-User's only having Reader, you will not be able to get the form and the data both together in an e-mail.

I have a PDF form which appears to be sending, and I get to my confirmation page, but I get nothing in email. I am using FormMail.cgi to the sendmail util on my provider's site. The formmail.cgi is working because an HTML form works fine. The email address in the PDF form is correct as well.
 
1) What else should I be looking for within the PDF form, and how can I test what is happening once I hit submit? Is there a way to test this out using the PDF form from an SSH command line?
 
What I would really like to do is to attach the PDF form to an email and receive the whole form, or be able to merge back the contents into the form to print it when I receive the posted data from the form.
 
2) What are the best ways to do this keeping in mind that my hosting service may not have the necessary setup if it is not merely using cgi-bin & sendmail functionality (and no, I do not want to pay a service to host my forms)?
 
If you want to see my form it is here (unprotected - if you want to look under the covers):
 
 
Thanks,
Jeff
