I'm sending two variables (email addresses) from flash to a perl script. The script doesn't write the addresses to the specified .txt files like it should. The script is also designed to send a email message to the "receiver" email address but this also fails to function. After working on it for weeks, I haven't the foggiest notion why.

The script has no problems, writing down the addresses, and sending the email message when called from a standard hmtl sender: http://recordings.foxflare.com/roundup_album1_player/input.html
(if you put your own address, to test, don't worry I'll erase it)

The flash file is sending the same variables the same way so I'm wondering why there isn't a similar result.

Here is the flash page that doesn't work:
http://recordings.foxflare.com/roundup_album1_player/roundup_player2.html

If needed, here is the flash source:
http://recordings.foxflare.com/roundup_album1_player/roundup_player2.fla

Last, but definitely not least, here is a readable version of the perl script:
http://www.foxflare.com/blaster.txt

Unfortunately I don't know perl at all. That I've gotten the script this far is a reflection of insane persistence. If you see what needs modification, could you please show me what code is needed, and where to insert it. General guidance will do little to help considering my lack of perl experience I regret.

It would be GREATLY appreciated, Kevin
