It seems that you have figured this out by yourself, but a few
tips for future reference:

You may wish to configure your mail user agent (client) to send
plain text E-mails instead of HTML. I believe that many of us
prefer it. You should also learn how to properly send plain text
E-mails and generally proper netiquette for mailing list usage
(it varies list to list, and I don't know that this is a hard
"rule" here, but IMO it would help).

On that same note, avoid using "rich text" styling to communicate
ideas because not all readers will be able to see it. It appears
that you tried to color parts of the text in red to emphasis
them. I didn't see this from mutt where I normally read mailing
list posts. I noticed it when I happened to open the same thread
from the Gmail Web interface.

Lastly, if you're having trouble with Perl code it is always a
good idea to post the code you're struggling with. It's a little
bit difficult to understand what you were having trouble with,
but if you had posted code then there would have been several
anxious persons able to spot the problem and rushing to be the
first to reply. :)

Regards,
