This was solved:
=====
start using stack "libURL"
Post tText to url  "http://www-sd.castandcrew.com/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl"
======

should work. Previously I had not put the "http://" in front on the URL.
This is important as libURL handles both FTP and HTTP and parses the
beginning of the URL to handle it properly.

Post tText to url "www.whoever.org/cgi-bin/whatever.cgi"

will NOT work.
