Muse contact form on third party hosting service

Question

I uploaded a contact form and keep getting an error message that "the server either does not have php installed or the php is not configured correctly." My host service moved my site to a linux server running apache 2.2.23. I am using the default php settings, but can switch to php 4 or php 5.  This is a screen shot of the php settings.

Data Handling
register_globals
You should do your best to write your scripts so that they do not require register_globals to be on; Using form variables as globals can easily lead to possible security problems, if the code is not very well thought of.

session.save_path
where N is an integer. Instead of storing all the session files in /path, what this will do is use subdirectories N-levels deep, and store the session data in those directories. This is useful if you or your OS have problems with lots of files in one directory, and is a more efficient layout for servers that handle lots of sessions. NOTE 1: PHP will not create this directory structure automatically. You can use the script in the ext/session dir for that purpose. NOTE 2: See the section on garbage collection below if you choose to use subdirectories for session storage
/tmp
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My host kept on insisting that the problem was with the adobe code for the
contact form, but it didn't sound right so after gaining access  to the
admin panel for my site I discovered a default email account had been, I
assume, set up by the system. I started to test submitting both the muse
forms and some pdf forms that I generated using Acrobat XI Pro. The emails
were not delivered to the address coded into the forms but were being
trapped in this default email account. I tried to access the account by
clicking on the webmail button that was shown, but the browser could not
locate the webmail  server. After some more digging I found an
https://mydomain:1111 address that allowed me to get in. All of my test
forms were being trapped and returned to sender with the message that I did
not exist. Obviously since the emails were generated by the php email
function they went nowhere.
At about 2am I sent my host an email with screen shots and have basically
demanded that he find a way to kill the default email account. I have not
heard back yet.
It was a lengthy forum exchange on the Muse forum in 6/13 between someone
in the UK and various forum members and finally adobe's staff that helped
to get me on the right trail. My host is using linux with apache server
software. If this is happeneing to me, it is probably happening to others
and they are being frustrated by a host who either is incapable or
unwilling to dig in to find a solution.
If you want I will let you know how this all turns out.
Thanks for your help, and I am going to post the contents of this email as
part of the forum discussion.
