Hello, I would like to get some help here with sending emails to multiple recipients using Mail::Sender. My code works ok when it sits within the same script. The problem crops up when I take the list of email addresses and Move them to another file. I don't get any errors and I don't receive the emails in any of the addresses inside the list. I have tried everything and cannot get it working.

Previous code is like so: (This is the working code)

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Mail::Sender

$To = 'email1@example1.com,email2@example2.com';

$sender = new Mail::Sender {
        smtp => 'smtp.mailserver.com',
        from => 'script@somedomain.com,
        });

$Subject = 'This is a Test Email';

$sender->OpenMultipart({
        to      => "$To",
        subject => "$Subject",
        });

$Sender->Body;
$Sender->SendLineEnc("Test line 1");
$Sender->SendLineEnc("Test line 2");

$Sender->Attach({
        description     => 'Test file',
        ctype           => 'application/pdf',
        encoding        => 'Base64',
        disposition     => 'attachment;
        filename="File.pdf"; type="PDF"',
        file            => "$File",
        });

$sender->Close();
exit();
[download]

Current code is like so: (This is the non working code)

Here is the line that resides inside $TestFile:

To                      = mail1@example1.com,email2@example2.com

And now the Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Mail::Sender

$TestFile            = "../etc/TestFile.conf";

if (!open(TESTFILE,$TestFile)) {
    print "ERROR: Unable to open Test File for reading: $TestFile";
    exit();
}

foreach $Line (<TESTFILE>) {
    if ($Line =~ m/To\s*=\s*(.*)/) {
        $To            = $1;
        print "To = <$To>\n";
    }
}

$sender = new Mail::Sender {
        smtp => 'smtp.mailserver.com',
        from => 'script@somedomain.com,
        });

$Subject = 'This is a Test Email';

$sender->OpenMultipart({
        to      => "\'$To\'",
        subject => "$Subject",
        });

$Sender->Body;
$Sender->SendLineEnc("Test line 1");
$Sender->SendLineEnc("Test line 2");

$Sender->Attach({
        description     => 'Test file',
        ctype           => 'application/pdf',
        encoding        => 'Base64',
        disposition     => 'attachment;
        filename="File.pdf"; type="PDF"',
        file            => "$File",
        });

$sender->Close();
exit();
[download]

Any help is greatly appreciated!
