Hi there... this is my first post, but I've been dabling with Perl for the last few months. I'd appreciate any help with moving subroutines to module files. I've got a number of perl scripts I use to organise and manipulate data collected by SNMP calls. A lot of the individual subroutines are reused in the different scripts. I'd like to move the subroutines to a .pm file so that adminstration of the subroutines will be centralised. An example subroutine that I'd like moved is below. Could someone provide some direction on what changes I'd need to make so that I could access this subroutine from a pm file. Thanks a million - Gearoid. 
sub SendMail { 
my ($title) = $_[0]; 
my ($message) = $_[1]; 
my ($techname); 

@recipients = ("pat", 
"paul", 
"peter"); 

foreach $techname (@recipients){ 
system ("echo '$message' | mail \"techname\@company.com\" -s \"$title\
+""); 
} 
}
