Greetings!

I have a script that uses sendmail.  It used to work.  I didn't touch
it.  It doesn't work now.  The log file tells me that there are no
recipient addresses.  It looks to me like they are.  Here's the code:

	# Send a confirming E-mail.
	open (SENDMAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -t") or die "Cant fork
sendmail: $!\n";
	print SENDMAIL <<"ENDOFMAIL";
		From: therobs\@n2net.net
		To: interrobang\@yahoo.com
		Subject: Volunteer Scheduling - $month $day, $year

		Contact: $usrvals[2] $usrvals[3]
		E-Mail: $usrvals[5]
		IP Address: $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}
		Telephone: $usrvals[4]
		Volunteer Date: $month $day, $year
		Train: $train
		Position: $position
		!!Note: Generated by CVSR's online scheduling system!!
ENDOFMAIL
	close(SENDMAIL);
#	open (SENDMAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -t") or die "Cant fork
sendmail: $!\n";
#	print SENDMAIL <<"ENDOFMAIL";
#		From: $usrvals[5]
#		To: mis\@cvsr.com
#		Subject: Volunteer Scheduling - $month $day, $year
#
#		Contact: $usrvals[2] $usrvals[3]
#		E-Mail: $usrvals[5]
#		IP Address: $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}
#		Telephone: $usrvals[4]
#		Volunteer Date: $month $day, $year
#		Train: $train
#		Position: $position
#		!!Note: Generated by CVSR's online scheduling system!!
#ENDOFMAIL
#	close(SENDMAIL);

The commented-out code once worked.  Can anyone tell me why mine isn't?

Thanks very much!

I cant tell U why it doesnt work , I can help u debug

Do you run this on cammand line ?
If yes run the sendmail with a -v ( verbose )

..... "|sendmail -v -oi -t ")


If no then You must be able to debug either by printing what you are printing also to a fil

If you have root acces to your server you can try

stop sendmail
start sendmail with
sendmail -bd -X /tmp/somelogfile

and run your program again
then You can see in the 'somelogfile' where the mails were going

Bye
