Please supply more information:
1) At what point is your program failing?
The program itself doesn't seem to fail. I put a cout statement after my
last line of code, and it pops up just fine.
2) If it gets far enough, are you capturing the exit code of
/usr/bin/sendmail (or
t;;
print MAIL "Subject: Quote for $date\n";
print MAIL $sdata[rand(@sdata)];
close MAIL;
$recip, when I printed it to the screen for testing purposes, came out as
user\@domain.com, which is exactly what I need.
Any idea why the mailwrapper would append my local domain like that?
Thanks,
Alex Le Fevre
No it isn't. The =~ s stuff is totally unnecessary, as you're not passing
the address on the command line to sendmail...
Maybe I didn't make myself clear. I *am* trying to pass the e-mail address
from the command line to sendmail. And yes, $recip *is* user\@domain.com --
I printed it to
Aw come on, take away the =~ s line and you'll be fine. I promise.

before the "@" when I hard-code, so I thought it would be necessary with my
variable as well.
And NO, you're not trying to pass the recip on the
Not quite; that will try to deliver to an mbox file named "Maildir" in
username's homedir, but as user alias.
Chances are that you want that .qmail file to contain "username" instead,
which will forward the mail from the long name to the short username.
Then, that user's .qmail file (or

stuff, and I don't see a lot about switching MDAs.

Note that users

Thus, you're saying, if there's a .qmail file, the

I'm no Perl coder, but it looks to me like you're
sending everything as part of
the message header -- you need a completely blank
line (i.e. no whitespace on
the line) between the end of the message headers,
and the start of your first
MIME part.
That just makes everything show up as
if this would
be right for all types of attachments.

That made it come through as a bunch of gobbledygook
to my mail...but that's OK, because I know what I have
to write on my mailwrapper to get it to see that it's
an attachment. I think that suggestion will do the
trick. Thanks!

Hmmm...I thought I had it, but not quite. For some
reason, my Perl script is outputting to the screen,
not my mailwrapper. Are there any limitations on what
you can send to the mailwrapper? My program is below:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$fileout = system("/bin/cat
/home/www/schnarff/images/chili.jpg |
I've solved my earlier problem of getting my script to
output an encoded file to the mailwrapper. My only
problem is, I'm having real trouble getting mail
agents to see the attachment properly.
Using this script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$fileout = `cat /home/www/schnarff/images/chili.jpg |
I'm done?

OK, that's cool...but now I have (presumably) one last
question. I've got my script printing From: $usermail

both to trap the address the user enters and put it
into the From: field. My question is, what field to I
need to put $usermail into so

checking?

DJB posted to this list once, pointing out problems
with mailer.conf -- if

The symlink solution is more reliable, and no files

How about the output of `ls -ld / /home /home/alias

My thinking at this point is this has to be an
ownership/permissions issue.

No, chown it to alias. In fact, make that `chown -R

to make it right. You can change the group to

I don't think so. wheel is a privileged group,

All of these undeliverable users have Maildirs in

I've noticed that, whenever an error occurs with

I'd like to be able to just go look those up and leave

you let me know?
