Inherited code (from Verisign): @[EMAIL PROTECTED] = split /\t/,$rec;
which worked but really puzzled me.
I assumed that it meant[EMAIL PROTECTED] = split /\t/,$rec;
which worked also as I verified by testing both versions.
However [EMAIL PROTECTED] = split /\t/,$rec;
gives the warning quo

The first @ in
@[EMAIL PROTECTED] = split /\t/,$rec;

And (mis)use of $ rather than @ lead
