So the path was right but the error on line 26 is this line

Can't find instructions for resetting that

Remember I said,

It would be correct, providing that,

/home/mydomainname/www/cgi-bin/dada/plugins/dada_bounce_handler pl

Is the actual path to the script and you've changed the lib paths
within the script itself

The easiest thing to do - change this command:

/usr/bin/perl /home/mydomainname/www/cgi-bin/dada/plugins/ 

dada_bounce_handler pl

to:

cd /home/meetingsandmixers/www/cgi-bin/dada/plugins; /usr/bin/perl 
/ 

dada_bounce_handler pl --verbose

(make sure all the paths are correct) And it should all work You run
this on your hosting account, while connected via ssh - it's not
something that runs locally on your Mac

That all is a headache - and I've pretty much given up on trying to
get people to figure out absolute paths, or how to change perl lib
directories and all that - THAT's why you don't have to do any of that
- all you have to do is have an automated task check a specific URL
You can have a cronjob do that automatically, using a utility like
curl - and this plugin will create both the URL to manually check and
the curl command to use in the plugin itself - it's just a copy and
paste
