Thanks Marcus.
Here is the code. Near the beginning of the code, they define:
$SMTPMailServer = 'wwwsvr.theirdomain.org';
When I try this same code on our unix mail server, it runs perfectly. So I must be missing something exclusive to NT.
One more note: My client just installed Perl for this script, so it could be their installation or it could be my code. Unfortunately, I don't have access to their server.
Thanks again.
David
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# Point the previous line to the location of Perl on your server
# On NT the first line would be something like #!e:\Perl\bin\Perl.exe
# There are two ways to set the email method
# Method 1 - Use with Unix servers and some NT servers
# Set the $mailprog variable to point to the mail system on your server.
# If you are on a unix server, it is probably correct.
# Sendmail, mail, and qmail are the most common. Your ISP should
# be able # to give you the path and name of your server mailing program.
# You only need to set the next line if you use Method 1.
$mailprog = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
# Method 2 - Use this on NT servers that do not have a sendmail program.
# You must have the perl module Net::SMTP installed on your server.
# Set the part between the single quotes to the SMTP mail host name.
# An example would be: $SMTPMailServer = 'mailhost.server.com';
# If you are using Method 1, there should be nothing between the quotes.
$SMTPMailServer = '';
# If Blat is used then set the path to Blat.exe & specify a temporary
# file name. If Blat is not being used, leave both variables blank.
# Example: $blatpathname = "e:\blat\blat.exe";
# Example: $tempfilename = "e:\inetpub\vs20\cgi-bin\blat\mailtemp$$";
