[lug] file handle and pipe

[j davis]

Hello,
Im a newbie. I have a var. that holds the contents of a email. I am trying
to send the email using sendmail like this....

`/bin/echo $in{content} | sendmail jd\@taproot.bz`;

doesnt work , friend suggested this.....

open MAIL, "|/usr/bin/sendmail jd\@taproot.bz";
print MAIL "$in{content}";
close MAIL;

cant seem to make this work either but i really like the idea of it.
can i open a file handel and pipe info into a program like
im trying above?

p.s. i did send this to boulder-pm, just trying to cover all
my bases

thanks,
jd
