hi, i'm very new to Perl and have the following task to accomplish..

An OS command returns the following text.

SMTP-Address: [user@abc.com] [user-1@abc.com] [user-2@abc.com]
user@abc.com is the user's primary email address and the others are aliases.. We have a need to convert the mail domain from abc.com to xyz.com. And in order to convert, I need to use the following lines
SMTP-Address: [user@xyz.com] [user-1@xyz.com] [user-2@xyz.com] EOF

as input to an OS command that will modify the user's email addresses with the new xyz.com domains..

note that not every user will have 3 email addresses.. some only one, some 5, some 8,etc,etc..

all help will be greatly appreciated.
