im trying to put together a lil' script thatll sort email addresses for me. ive a small file with:

blah@aol.com
blah@yahoo.com
blah@msn.com
blah2@aol.com
blah2@yahoo.com
blah2@msn.com
blah3@aol.com
blah3@yahoo.com
blah3@msn.com

in it and this script DOES sort them, only it loses blah@aol.com somewhere in the middle. any idea whats wrong?

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Mail::AddressSort;
open(EMAILS, "/root/emails") or die "Couldn't open email list\n";
while (<EMAILS>)
{
 @addresses = <EMAILS>;
 $list=Mail::AddressSort->new();
 $list->input(@addresses);
 (@addresses)=$list->sorted();
 print "@addresses";
}
