lose the target, lang and dir parts of that and make sure that the FM.pl really is in ../cgibin/ from where the html form is

*NEVER* put the recipient of a form in the actual form, you will be abused by 1000 different spammers within days of uploading the page, get the IP blacklisted, and will be contributing to the 10-ton-o-sh!te we all get in our inboxes everyday

Apart from that, everything else should be fine - you have configured the formmail.pl file correctly ?
