Well, here's how I do it...using sendmail on a *nix machine.

my $MAILFROM = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]';
my $MAILSUBJECT = "subject goes here";
my $MAILTO = '[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED]';  # or "user1\@domain.com"

open(SENDMAIL, "| /usr/lib/sendmail $MAILTO") || die;
print(SENDMAIL "From: $MAILFROM\nTo: $MAILTO\nSubject: $MAILSUBJECT\n\n");
print(SENDMAIL "Put your output here");
close(SENDMAIL) || die;

One way of many...

Regards,

Danny

Subject: Output PERL to E-mail



I have a PERL installed on a WinIIS box. This script queries a (SQL)
database, makes a few minor manipulations to that data, then builds a small
paragraph of text, from there.

So, how do I send that text info to an e-mail address (gathered from that
same database)? How about several e-ddresses?

Surely there are several ways to do this. Isn't there a specific PERL
statement especially for this kind of thing? I *do* have FormMail running on
another machince (a UNIX/Apache Web Server) on the same network. Would that
be easier? More secure? How would I finish this task that way? It is
politically necessary avoid any M$ solutions, if possible. Any other, better
tacts/suggestions? Please fire away.







Yours,
