500 Internal Server Error

Try viewing the file signup.php remotely using your FTP program.  If the file is double-spaced you may need to re-upload it using the alternate transfer mode (ASCII / Binary).

".php" files should probably not be executable, so if the "chmod" permissions are "755" try making them "644" or "600".

ListMail should not be installed in the /cgi-bin folder of your site.  If you have installed to this folder, try making a new sub-folder off of your main public folder for ListMail instead.

If none of these help you may need to contact your host to view your site's "error_log" which should contain a more descriptive error message regarding the problem.

I have checked signup.php and it looks OK, the error_log has this entry;
