[lug] file handle and pipe

[j davis]

I'm sorry I should be more clear. My var is from a perl script and I
would like to stay that way. When i try this...

`/bin/echo $in{content} | sendmail jd\@taproot.bz`;
       or
`/bin/echo $in{content} | mail -s "Subject..." jd\@taproot.bz`;

the mail gets there just not the contents.

?,
jd
