        Yep, you're right. =:\  I thought it was going to be a simple question 
about the unless statement.  Turns out I was headed down the wrong path, so I 
changed the variable name to make it clear.  Next time I'll keep that in mind.

        Also, I adopted your use of  my $host = $mail_field || 'localhost';   
Nice and concise!

my $mail_field = 'mail.example.com ';
$mail_field =~ s/\s+//g if (defined $mail_field);
my $host = $mail_field || 'localhost';

Thanks again,
Marc
