Well, blat will only do a small part of what sendmail will do, but you
should not need for what you are trying.

Agreed.

I am guessing this is where your problem is. It looks like the above
is specifying the MTA to deliver the message. What are you setting it

r> $fh->close; # complete the message and send it
r> $fh->cancel; # not yet implemented
