Hi

I'm trying to email an attached zip file with the following code but the message just seems to go into cyberspace and not my inbox? 

$logfile="$logpath.zip";
$subject="logs for $pkgname";
$user1="user01";
$recipient1="user01@email.org";

if ($userid = $user1){
  system("uuencode  ${logfile} ${logfile} | mailx -s ${subject} -r ${r
+ecipient1}");
#print "$user1\n";

}

I've put the curly braces around the variables to try to avoid interpolation

Also tried without the curly braces but received the same result.

Thanks

Tony
