The ARPReach field names are not recognized by Post Gopher. To use them with Post Gopher, you need to generate a form code without a recaptcha as Post Gopher will not work with their recaptcha code embedded.
The form you add to your Post Gopher should look something like this
<form method="post" action="https://MYDOMAIN.com/arpreach/a.php/sub/n/LIST_ID">
<input type="text" name="email_address">
<input type="text" name="name">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Subscribe">
</form>

- No other fields, eg phone, address, etc
- No image/logo/social sharing/spacer/divider/etc
- No header/footer, no label positioning
- No formatting - that is done in Post Gopher
