presumably your enclosing script know what variables might be set (and
it probably sets some defaults itself too), so there should be no
hassles in "predeclaring" the expected variables.
eg:
our $passwdfile = '/etc/passwd';
our $email;
require 'vars.pl';
if ($email) {
# send spam
}
otherwise, you'll have to declare "no strict 'vars'", since thats what
you're doing anyway.
