Hi,

having problems with Sendmail on a RAQ2 and wondered if anyone has any
thoughts...

Calling it from perl, it works fine unless the domain contains a hyphen.
Then we get the message "User not known"

I tried putting the addresses in quotes, then it seems to send the mail to:

"e-mail-address@domain"@default.host.address

Code tried:

sub send_email {

	my ($to,$from,$subject,$message) = @_;

	 open(MAIL,"|$common::conf{'mail_prog'} -t") || die ('Cannot send e-mail.
Check path mail program is valid',1);

	print MAIL "To: $to\n";
	print MAIL "From: $from\n";
	print MAIL "Subject: $subject\n\n";
	print MAIL $message;
	close (MAIL);
}

Then I changed these two lines:

	print MAIL "To: \"$to\"\n";
	print MAIL "From: \"$from\"\n";

Arggghhh. Any ideas?
