Right. Got Apache running as nobody.

Which headers are trusted and which are untrusted.

Great now we're onto something. If I execute the script on the commandline
as nobody I get the following:
2001-06-28 14:41:18 15Fb6k-00071E-00 Failed to create spool file
/var/spool/exim
/input//15Fb6k-00071E-00-D: Permission denied
Why didn't I try this before. :(
What do I need to do to send e-mail as nobody without giving nobody to many
permissions. I've got a standard installation of exim. Only simple ROUTERS
changes in the configuration file.
