Well what I want to do is backup my Eudora mailboxes, and I have that part working, but I wanna automate it so that every time I close Eudora the files get copied. A suggestion was that I could wrap the call to Eudora in an eval and just call Eudora from the Perl Script.

check it out:

I'm not sure what you're trying to do with Eudora, or if it even supports
OLE (I don't do much windows programming) but the link above should be a
good starting point.

ps.  here's the demo for how they start excel...you can probably do
something similar with Eudora
