The easier way is to pipe it into a temporary file: open (MAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -t -v > $tmpfile") or die "cant fork proc to mail\n"; If you really insist in piping it back to you, have a look at IPC::Open2. But keep in mind that this'll be a little tricky. Jenda =========== [EMAIL PROTECTED] == http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz ========== There is a reason for living. There must be. I've seen it somewhere.
