A simple solution is to reset a variable at each <START> tag like this. I've added a few extra print messages to show the processing ;
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
# use strftime
use POSIX qw(strftime);
my $logdate = strftime "%Y%m%d", localtime;
my $logpath = "c:/temp" # change to suit;
# set directory
my $dir = "$logpath/$logdate";
# get list of files with mtime in seconds
opendir(FD,$dir) or die "$!\n";
my @files = map { [ (stat("$dir/$_"))[9] ,$_ ] } grep !/^\.\.?$/,readd
+ir(FD);
print "List of files in $dir\n";
for (@files){ print "@$_\n" };
close(FD);
# sort latest first
sub rev_by_date { $b->[0] <=> $a->[0] };
my @sorted_list = sort rev_by_date @files;
print "List of sorted files\n";
for (@sorted_list){ print "@$_\n" };
# shift latest file from front of array
my $latestlog = ( shift @sorted_list )->[1];
print "lastest log = $latestlog\n";
#fetching the last modified log
my $logfile = "$dir/$latestlog";
open(F,'<',$logfile) or die "Could not open $logfile : $!\n";
# store last message only
my $message;
while (<F>){
if (/^<START date/){
$message = $_;
} else {
$message .= $_;
}
}
close(F);
print $message;
#sendmail($now,$message);

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
