This might sound a big picky, but using backticks to call the date command in a perl script is horrible. Try using the standard gmtime function. Eg:

$date = gmtime().' (UTC)';

Rather than:

$date = `date -u`; chomp($date);
/me too busy to man perlfunc

Let this thread be an inspiration for all coders out there.

Now back to the real world..
Sorry, I assumed that if you were releasing source code to the public, you'd want to make sure it was cross platform compatible. I wont point out the various other limitations with your script then.

Are you actually serious or is this some geek humor that I don't get?

I was serious. Your code is a bit shit. I was just trying to help. Never mind.

If you are serious, would you be willing to audit SpamAssassin code with such
enthusiasm? It might actually _matter_.

No, I'm too busy.
