The Service Status page showed that webserver 4 was having some maintenance carried out yesterday.
I happened to notice some old CGI scripts I use failing this morning on a server 4 website.
Poking about I found that some file permissions have changed from 766 to 744.
This has happened on numerous server 4 sites.
After changing the file permission on the failing script everything is running again.
Freeola, thanks for posting this maintenance work. Without seeing that I would have been scratching my head for a lot longer!
Can you say what the maintenance was and if you will be doing it to all the other web servers in the future?
EDIT:
I thought this was worth a forum post rather than a support ticket as I'm all sorted and others may find it useful if they are affected :¬)

If only there was some electronic way of contacting people...
One day perhaps :¬P
I've recently updated Tectite formmail on the site that was failing with the latest formmail script and over the weekend also installed it on a new domain and everything seems to be working fine.
If any other files at Freeola's end were changed to get things working due to the server maintenance please let me know so I can get my files in sync.

Hi Freeola,
I've just noticed that this has started to happen for me again (see below)?
Emails generated via formmail (Freeola script & 3rd party ones) display this as the from address:
user1000 [[email protected]] on behalf of email_account_used_in_form_script
Has recent maintenance re-introduced this perhaps?
Please let me know if you need more details.

Hi Freeola,
I'm not sure if this is me or not but I 'think' it could be down to your changes. It's a newly re-written website so i'm not 100% sure...
Using the Freeola standard form-to-mail script I notice on the REPLY address shows as:
Previously it just used to show as from the normal account used in the form.
Note.
Not all email clients will show 'on behalf of'. Desktop MS Outlook does.

Sorry for the delay in replying Hmmm...
Could you drop us a support ticket please so this can get looked at and so we have a proper record of it? Thanks.
