Re^2: email subject issue in mailx

Thanks for ur quick response... I tried ur code and faced the error: Can't use an undefined value as filehandle reference at 1.pl line 4. The code I used is:

#!/tools/sde/frame.sde/bin/perl
$subject="I am subject";
$hfile="/aim2/actiview/web/scripts/samweb/perl-lib/mbm/mbm_csv/test1/t
+2.csv";
open(my $fr_uuencode, '-|',
    uuencode => ( $hfile )
)
    or die $!;

open(my $to_mailx, '|-',
    mailx => (
        -s => '$subject',
        -m => 'manjunath.bm\@alcatel-lucent.com mbm\@alcatel-lucent.co
+m',
    )
)
    or die $!;

print $to_mailx $_ while <$fr_uuencode>;

`-s => '$subject',` Don't know about your "undefined value as filehandle reference" error (Update: actually I do: you seem to have an ancient Perl (pre 5.6.1)), but you likely don't want single quotes around `$subject`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

In addition to issues identified by almut, `'manjunath.bm\@alcatel-lucent.com mbm\@alcatel-lucent.com'` [download] produces the string `manjunath.bm\@alcatel-lucent.com mbm\@alcatel-lucent.com` [download] You want `'manjunath.bm@alcatel-lucent.com mbm@alcatel-lucent.com'` [download] or `"manjunath.bm\@alcatel-lucent.com mbm\@alcatel-lucent.com"` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
