Ok, so while I now understand why that wouldn't work for all real addys, any idea why it's failing with CGI? Even if I'm not going to use this, and go with a module or something like Email::Valid, I'd still like to know what I'm doing wrong to cause it to fail. My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features. Flame ~ Lead Programmer: GMS	[reply]
