You should script it as follows:

open (SENDMAIL, "|$SENDMAIL_PATH -t") || die "Can't open $SENDMAIL!\n";
print SENDMAIL "From: $REPLYTO ($REPLYTO)\n";
print SENDMAIL "Reply-To: $REPLYTO ($REPLYTO)\n";
print SENDMAIL "To: $TO\n";
print SENDMAIL "Subject: $SUBJECT\n\n";
print SENDMAIL "content\n";
close(SENDMAIL);
