hi Monks, I am trying to code a script that permits me to login into my webmail, catch the last top news and then disconnect. I am trying to code using LWP::UserAgent but whitout success. In a few words: 
1.)use LWP::UserAgent;
2.)use strict;

3.)my $user = '';
4.)my $pass = '';

5.)my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
6.)my $resp = $ua->get("http://www.webmail.com/login?u=".$user."&passw
+ord=".$pass );

7.)die if !$resp->is_success; 

#the rest of code here ----------->

Problem seems to be with the code at line 6. I am not able to login, successfully to the site. I suspect the path "http:://www/.." is not the right one. How can i find the right one where to pass all the params necessary to login into the mail? Thanks
