Bradey Baily identified the heart of the problem you're having
Here are a couple of additional tips:
Firstly, go to your email client settings (Outlook if I'm not
mistaken) and change it so that it doesn't break long lines of text.
This will make it easier for people to to debug. Additionally,
whenever possible, try to whittle away code that isn't involved in the
error before sending the code to the list for review. I recommend
copying your original file and deleting a few lines at a time here and
there until there is only a small amount of code that produces the
same error message that you was giving you the problem (on a different
line number of course). This may even lead you to finding the problem
yourself.
Making these changes will get your problem in front of a lot more eyes.

For this documentation section HTML::Mason offers a <%doc> tag. So
you can do this instead:
<%doc>
######################################################
Perl Script to connect to Incognito and retrieve modem information
######################################################
</%doc>
Everything within a doc section is treated as if it were already commented out.
This way you don't have to escape each line twice using "%" and "#"

Definitely a faster way:
$macAddr =~ s/://g; # g is for globally: replaces all occurrences
$macAddr = lc($macAddr); # lowercase in one fell swoop
