in reply to Getting rid of first space?

Actually, I forgot to mention that it is being printed in the body of an email:

print MAIL @messagebody;

    That doesn't change the fact that it works as you have it here. If your real program has quotes around @messagebody, remove them and it will work as you expect.

    We're not surrounded, we're in a target-rich environment!

      You were right! I had print MAIL "@messagebody\n";

      print MAIL @messagebody; worked great!!!!
