You are talking about different things... Alex, you may well be passing the
address INTO YOUR SCRIPT on the command line. Johan and Bruce are pointing
out that _within_ your script you are not passing the address TO SENDMAIL on
the command line.
# pass to sendmail on commands line
open MAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -t $recip" ...
# passing on STDIN
open (MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail -t");
print MAIL "To: $recip\n";
