Hi Monks,

I have a script that I use to send e-mail when I have added them to my ftp server, however, these individuals change daily and weekly. That said, previously I manually created an array and added the users and it worked, but now that I push users onto the array from the script, the script works but doesn't send the e-mail? I have come to a hard stop on this. Does anyone see a reason why this would not work? I have placed a snippet (not the whole script)for your thoughts. I thought--pushing users onto the array would work. As always, thank you. 

my @addresses;
print "Enter address(s) and press [Enter]: ";
        
        chomp($usermail= <STDIN>);          
                
        print "\nE-mail Address(s) are: $usermail\n";
                
           
                    
        ## Push each user onto the array ##
        
        push(@addresses,$usermail);
        
        ### E-mail Routine ###

        if($usermail ne "") {
                $smtp = Net::SMTP->new( 'SMTPSERVERNAME' );
        $smtp->mail('sender@mydomain.com');
        $smtp->recipient(@addresses);
        $smtp->data();
        #Send the header.
        $smtp->datasend( "To: @addresses\n" );
        $smtp->datasend( "From: sender\@mydomain.com\n" );
        $smtp->datasend( "Subject: FTP Access \n" );
        $smtp->datasend( "\n" );
        #Send the body
        $smtp->datasend("You have been invited to access the my projec
+t FTP Site by using the following 'project name' and 'password.'
\n");
        my $msg = <"\nproject name is: $username\n\nPassword is: $user
+passwd\n\n$MOTD">;
        $smtp->datasend( $msg );
        $smtp->dataend();
        $smtp->quit;
        };
