I'm new at Perl, and i just figured this out today. Go to http://www.stalkerlab.ch/Smailers/Main.html and download their mail programs. just follow the directions they give you re: installing and where to put the mail.exe and mail.ini files. In your script add this: $mail_command= "echo <whatever you want as the body, minus the brackets> | mail -s \"Supply Request\" whoever@domain.com >process.log"; system($mail_command); Hope this helps.
