You may be getting emails, but for some reason, when I try the links
provided as a demo:

BAD LINK--
http://www.social-ecology.org/new/indexbog.html


PAGE WITH BAD LINK--
http://www.social-ecology.org/indexbogus.html

My browser pops up the save as dialog.  I do have javascript enabled, so
I don't understand it.

I have been working on a similar 404 - actually just trying to modify
the one at phpbuilder.com to work with my system (PHP mail() won't work
because user nobody does not have permissions to execute the deliver
daemon in the Cyrus Imap server).

Are you seeing the page itself?  I can't bring it up.
