Hi Fellow Monks! I'm trying to wring more performance from an e-mailing script, instead of sending messages serially via SMTP, I thought I'd run 4 child processes simultaneously sending e-mail via SMTP. The Parallel relevant code below works fine, the children fork, throughput increases, etc... the problem is that after running through the array and doing all the parallel execution, further code in the script doesn't execute! 
my $pm = new Parallel::ForkManager(4);
  foreach my $bccperson (@bccppl) {
   $pm->run_on_start(
    sub {
     $scount++;
     print "Sending Msg:$mjobno:$scount:$bccperson\n";
    }
   );
   $pm->run_on_finish(
    sub {
     $xcount++;
    }
   );

   $pm->start and next;
    my $msg = MIME::Lite->new(
                From => $from,
                To => $bccperson,
                Subject => $subject,
                Type    => 'text',
                Data    => $body ) || print "MIME::Lite new error: $bc
+cperson\n";
    MIME::Lite->send('smtp', '10.10.10.10', Timeout=>240);
    $msg->send() || print "Couldn't send to: $bccperson\n";
   $pm->finish;
  } #End of foreach $bccperson
 $pm->wait_all_children;
 print "This Line prints Fine\n";
 print "This line doesn't appear at all, no statements after the print
+ line above execute, how frustrating!!!\n";

Hope the robed ones can help!
