you'll notice that not only is the @ missing, but '@earthlink' is missing. in your code, after you're #!/usr/bin/perl, put: use warnings; you'll see that you havent correctly quoted/escaped the @, which is a special character. you can either: $SendersEmail = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; or $SendersEmail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; it also doesnt appear that you need m/ --- / will do fine by itself in this context. -- Jeremy Kister http://jeremy.kister.net./ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
