Problem solved. Thanks for those that emailed me to the right direction. sendmail.cf was configured incorrectly.

This is one version: open(MAIL, "| /usr/lib/sendmail -t") || die "No sendmail available: $!\n"; select(MAIL); $| = 1; print MAIL "To: $rademail\n"; print MAIL "From: $email\n"; print MAIL "Subject: $subject\n\n"; print MAIL "$salutation\n"; print MAIL ".\n"; close(MAIL); And I've used: open MAIL, "| /usr/lib/sendmail -t -i" or die "Could not open mail $!"; print MAIL <<EOF; To: $rademail Reply-To: $rademail Subject: $subject This is a test message body. EOF close MAIL; When I run it in a shell the process takes ages, but finally reports "No recipient addresses found in header". So why did this work on a Linux box and not a Solaris box.
