I would try to test something else besides the handle. I know you can do these types of tests against a file but a handle? Not sure if that is the best way to do it. Besides, you are testing if the file exists and have a nonzero size against a handle. Test the array maybe? > if ( -s OUT ) { > my %mailman = ( From => 'EDM01 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>', > To => 'Derek Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>', > Subject => "Foreign Tapes Found, now attmepting to > label" , > Message => print OUT "@ftapes" ); Try this for the Message line instead: Message => "@ftapes" ); You might also want to try MIME::Lite for sending this. I know there is a bunch of discussion about Mail::Sendmail and having it work correctly and everybody recommends MIME::Lite instead. I was using Mail::Sendmail for a bunch of things and moved everything over to MIME::Lite.
