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 ST
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?

How can I tell it to go in as the user? Alternately,
is there another way to implement this? All I really
care about is getting a 9+ character e-mail address
set up, I'm not finnicky on how I do it.
Thanks,

I'm trying to remove a bunch of e-mail from my
outgoing queue, which seems to be stored in
/var/qmail/queue/remote. Can I just delete the
directories containing these mails, or will that screw
up the program? Would it be better to just delete the
files themselves?

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 |
/usr/local/b
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 |
/us
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!
